A NEW state-of-the-art 57-bed care facility is due to open in Sale in April - and it will provide a jobs boost for the area.

Altrincham-based New Care says it is looking to take on approximately 80 members of staff to work at Ashland Manor, in Ashton-on-Mersey,

There are a wide range of positions available, including medical, hospitality and administrative roles.

On the medical side, New Care requires nurses, senior carers and care assistants.

The company also needs receptionists, administrators, maintenance, chefs, kitchen porters, laundry assistants and housekeepers on the hospitality and catering side.

With a hair salon and nail bar located within the new home, the team will also require hairstylists and beauty therapists.

The company is working closely with Trafford College and offers career progression through NVQs.

Chris McGoff, CEO at New Care, said: “We are very much looking forward to the opening of Ashland Manor and are pleased to now be in a position to recruit our team.

As a company we take great pride in everything we do and we will invest time and effort in this recruitment drive to ensure that we hand-pick the very best people for each position.”

He continued: “It is great news for the local economy that an Altrincham-based business is able to create around 80 jobs and that a real mix of roles are available.

"We would urge anyone with relevant skills to get in touch as we are not just looking at Ashland Manor, we are also keen to appoint teams for our forthcoming homes in Chester and Lytham.”

New Care is one of the UK’s fastest growing development-led care home operators, with Ashland Manor the first of two new North West care facilities scheduled to open this year.

Ashland Manor will offer residential, general nursing and specialist dementia care services.
