Caregiver Trainer
The role that compounds. Every cohort you train shapes a thousand families' experience.
Design and deliver the training that makes every Care Givers caregiver good at this work.
The Caregiver Trainer owns the curriculum and the cohorts. You'll run new-caregiver onboarding (60 hours), patient care attendant training (80 hours), and dementia/bedridden specialist tracks (120 hours each).
Half your week is in our Indiranagar training space teaching — clinical basics, communication, dignity-first hygiene, dementia validation therapy, infection control, household safety. The other half is in the field, observing caregivers in real placements and writing the next iteration of the curriculum.
This is the most consequential role in the company. The training curriculum is the moat — what we teach, how well we teach it, and whether it transfers to the home decides whether Care Givers is a premium service or another agency.
The work, day-to-day.
Real responsibilities — not vague aspirations. If something sounds like it isn't your strength, tell us in the application. We'll work with it.
- Run new caregiver cohorts (8–15 trainees, 60 hours over 2.5 weeks)
- Run specialist cohorts (dementia, bedridden, post-surgery, female-care)

What candidates ask us.
Will I have to train very new learners?
Yes — many caregivers are first-generation learners in formal training. The role demands patience and a clear voice. We'll match the curriculum style to that.
Can I keep doing some clinical work?
Yes — about 20% of your time will be in the field, observing real placements. We don't want a trainer who hasn't seen the room.
What if I have curriculum ideas that don't fit the current programme?
Bring them. The curriculum is yours to evolve, with a budget for experimentation.
