Celebrating Success: Our Innovative Support Workers Career Event in Leicester.
On November 11th, 2025, IBC Health Care proudly hosted an innovative Support Workers Careers Event at our Leicester Day Service. This remarkable day brought together passionate individuals from across Leicester, people driven by a shared commitment to making a real difference in the lives of vulnerable adults.
The event was nothing short of outstanding. It showcased the power of collaboration between our Talent Acquisition Team, Day Services Management Team, and, most importantly, the involvement of the people we support. Their participation added authenticity and heart to the entire experience.
We were thrilled to welcome around 50 like-minded care professionals, all eager to explore meaningful careers within IBC Health Care. Attendees had the opportunity to engage directly with our recruiters, gaining a true understanding of the rewarding roles we offer, roles that provide bespoke support to vulnerable adults, open doors to career progression, and deliver impactful job satisfaction.
One of the most inspiring aspects of the day was the interview process, which included some of the wonderful individuals who rely on our services. This unique approach allowed candidates to experience first hand what person-centred care truly means and understand the expectations of those we support. It was a powerful reminder that at IBC Health Care, our mission is not just about care delivery, it’s about creating partnerships that empower lives.
In just one day, we proudly finalised 29 job offers, marking a significant step toward strengthening our team and continuing our commitment to exceptional care.
As an organisation, we remain deeply committed to delivering exceptional care across Supported Living, Residential, and Day Services. . Involving the people we support in the recruitment process was the highlight of the day, reinforcing our dedication to person-centred care and ensuring that every decision we make reflects the voices of those who matter most.
This event was more than a careers fair, it was a celebration of values, purpose, and community. We look forward to welcoming more passionate individuals who share our vision of transforming lives through care.
Meet H – An Inspiration at Our Careers Event and Honorary Recruiter for the day!
One of the most memorable highlights of the day was the involvement of H, an inspirational individual within our care. H supported us throughout the event, welcoming attendees with warmth and confidence and even joining in on the actual interviews.
H truly embraced the experience. The questions H asked during interviews were sensational, not only offering scenarios based on personal needs but also considering the perspectives of fellow residents. Her smile and openness were truly beautiful and set the tone for an inclusive, person-centred day.
H openly admits that anxiety can sometimes get the better of her. However, being at an event filled with passionate individuals seeking a rewarding career in care brought her out of her shell. This was a true testament to the incredible development she has achieved with the support of her dedicated care team, allowing her to step out of her comfort zone, knowing she had her core team by her side every step of the way.
Her contribution as one of our honorary recruiters was invaluable. Seeing her input in the selection process and presenting her with a simple thank-you gift for her efforts made her day and ours! H’s involvement reflects our commitment at IBC Health Care: we don’t just attract, and source suitable talent based on assessments; we actively encourage participation from the people we support.
This approach drives a person-centred workforce strategy, ensuring our team is not only skilled but deeply aligned with the values and expectations of those we care for.
Thank you, H, you were and are amazing!
