Points to check before posting:
- “Multi-award-winning” appeared in the original but isn’t backed up by any named awards, so I left it out. Add them back if you can name them.
- The original says “weekend working” in two places, but the duties list mentions “across Jewish Care” as if the reader already knew the employer. I’ve named Jewish Care at the start for clarity.
- Closing date or how to apply isn’t given, so add an application link or contact.
