Care company to create 50 jobs

ILS Scotland, the community-based “care at home” company, has kick-started a recruitment drive as part of an expansion drive in Edinburgh, with 50 positions to be filled across the city.

The firm provides services on contract back to Edinburgh City Council to support older people and the disabled in their own homes.

Bruce Ramage, service manager for the company, said: “More elderly people are receiving support to help them stay in their own homes for longer.

“We need more support workers to meet the growing demand for care at home services.”

ILS Scotland is a long-established provider of care, working in partnership with local authorities, and has a workforce of 1,600 across the country.
