National home care company Cera Care is recruiting, retraining and deploying new care staff from industries that have suffered mass redundancies due to Covid-19, creating hundreds of jobs for redundant workers in Cumbria.

Cera Care is recruiting up to 10,000 new carers nationally and will be focusing on sectors with transferable skills for social care such as airlines, retail, customer service and hospitality, with successful applicants being selected, trained and placed into frontline roles in as little as ten days.

Cera Care has already begun accepting applications for these roles. It has undertaken initiatives with Airlines UK and Virgin Atlantic to facilitate the recruitment of recently laid-off airline staff. The company is also calling for further partnerships with large businesses and trade bodies in hard-hit sectors.

All of the roles are permanent and a variety of contracts are available, with carers being retained even when Covid-19 abates.
