Uzair scaled

With a diploma in health and social care gained in his native Pakistan, Uzair Hameed always knew he wanted to work in care and with a desire to explore the world, he was excited about the prospect of doing this in another country.

With friends already in the UK, he decided that was the place for him and turned to social media to see which the best company was to work for in the homecare sector – and that was Caremark.

He explains: “I looked at Facebook and I really liked the Caremark brand and what it stood for.

“It was clear to me that they looked after the people they cared for and their staff as well, so that appealed to me.”

When an on opportunity arose at Caremark Doncaster, thanks to the overseas sponsor programme, Uzair applied for a role and became part of our team in March 2023.

“Even though I had left Pakistan to work in the UK, I never felt alone,” he says.

“My friends helped me settle and everyone at Caremark was very welcoming too.

“I also quickly got to know my customers because as well as providing excellent care, I love talking to people and listening to stories about their lives.”

When he’s not working, Uzair is making the very most of his time in the UK, travelling to different parts of the country with his friends.

“I have been to London, Manchester, various part of Yorkshire, including Whitby, and we are now planning a trip to Scotland,” he says.

“I have always said that if you are mentally happy, then you will be happy in work and life in general, and that definitely applies to me.

“Even the weather in Yorkshire doesn’t get to me, even though it has so far prevented me from playing cricket, but there’s always next year!”
