North East care firm launches recruitment drive with 100 new jobs for region

Around 100 regional jobs are on the market as a local care provider prepares to open its newest home.

Beech Tree House, in Alnwick, is set to open later this year and will provide nursing, dementia and residential care as well as care for young, physically-disabled people, and bariatric residents.

Its operator, well known care operator Prestwick Care, is looking to fill a wide variety of roles, from nursing staff and carers, to housekeepers, chefs and administrators.

Prestwick Care’s CEO, Bunty Malhotra, said: “We want to find the very best people for each and every position so we hope that people with all sorts of career backgrounds will come along and find out what Beech Tree House has in store.

“Excellent rates of pay and career progression opportunities exist for those people who wish to fulfil their ambitions within the care sector.”

Beech Tree House will be Prestwick Care’s second Alnwick care home, after it purchased Hillcrest Care Home, off South Road, earlier this year.

They join a Prestwick Care portfolio of homes across Tyne and Wear and Northumberland, with new purpose-built care home facilities also scheduled to open in Ryhope, Sunderland, in spring 2020 and at Whitley Bay in autumn 2021.
