Occupational Therapist – Home Care Service in Catalonia

Why join Qida? 💚

Our value proposition is clear:

• Good people: humble, without internal politics, who treat others with respect and truly care about others.

• People good: maximum talent density: high agency (motivation, ownership, intensity) + high intrinsics (fast learning and competencies that meet our bar).

• High growth: we invest in feedback, training, and clear, motivating professional careers. We look for people driven by learning, not by staying where they are.

• High intensity and change environment: high pace, greater demands in corporate teams and leadership roles, with long days and flexibility. We expect every person to adapt and drive change. It is not for everyone.

• Impact and purpose: we work on something that matters, has, and provides meaning: we improve the healthcare and social system, and the lives of elderly people, their families, and those who care for them.

• We take care of each other: we are there for one another. We promote healthy habits, connection, transparency, and active listening.

• Competitive economic conditions: conditions aligned with the market and instruments that align us with the company's success. We don't want to attract through economic conditions, nor lose talent because of them.

• Remuneration: according to the collective agreement.

• Payflow: access to salary advances.

• Qida Connect: office activities to connect together (sports classes, activities, breakfasts, Pizza Day, afterworks, etc.), QidaDay once a year, and QidaParties!
