Job Purpose

We are looking for an exceptional individual to join us as Housekeeper on a full time basis at Fidra House, North Berwick. The role supports the home by providing a highly professional service, ensuring high standards of cleanliness are maintained.

Our Organisation

All of our homes are extremely well run and have positive grades with the Care Inspectorate.
