Meet the Team

Lee

Lee, a former social worker, has a wealth of experience supporting vulnerable clients within the public and private sector, through direct social work case management and private provider care management.

Lee has overseen the full spectrum of care needs from clients with significant and complex health needs, to those requiring social support. Each client receives the same high level of support whatever they need.

Lee's passion is advocating and sharing his knowledge of the care sector with the clients JohnJasper Care support, and instilling the values of transparency, empathy, self-awareness and resilience throughout the JohnJasper Care team. These vales support achieving the consistently high levels of client satisfaction and continuing improvement of the services they provide.

Kennedy

Meet Kennedy – Our Dedicated Home Care Manager

Kennedy joined the JohnJasper Care team in 2023, bringing with her over eight years of hands-on experience and leadership in the care sector. Her journey through the industry has been defined by passion, professionalism, and a tireless commitment to making a difference in people’s lives.

Throughout her career, Kennedy has worked across a wide range of care settings, including home care, complex care for both adults and children, palliative support, reablement, and services for children with learning disabilities. Her expertise and deep understanding of the sector have seen her rise through the ranks—from frontline care roles to senior leadership positions such as Team Leader, Branch Manager, Registered Manager, and even Regional Manager.

Kennedy is known not only for her strategic thinking and ability to turn around struggling services, but also for her approachable nature and genuine care for both clients and staff. Her background in recruitment, training, and compliance adds to her well-rounded leadership style, making her an invaluable asset to our team and to the families we serve.

When she’s not at work, Kennedy’s heart belongs to her furry (and not-so-furry) family—her home is happily shared with a French Bulldog, chinchillas, guinea pigs, cats, rabbits, and a tortoise. Her love for animals reflects her nurturing spirit and the warmth she brings to everything she does.

We’re proud to have Kennedy leading our home care services, ensuring every individual receives the compassionate, high-quality support they deserve.

Victoria

If there’s anyone who truly understands what it means to grow into a role with heart, it’s Victoria!

Before joining the world of care, Victoria spent an impressive 10 years at Sainsbury’s, climbing the ladder from Customer Service Assistant to Store Manager. But it was a deeply personal experience—caring for a close relative during their final days—that opened her heart to a new calling.

That moment of clarity led her to us at JohnJasper, and we couldn’t be more grateful! It didn’t take long for Victoria to shine. Within just six months, she stepped up as Field Care Supervisor, and another six months later, she took on her current role as our dedicated Care Co-ordinator.
Victoria brings warmth, empathy, and a brilliant sense of organisation to everything she does. Whether she's scheduling visits or supporting our care team, she makes sure every client is treated with the kindness and dignity they deserve.

When she’s not orchestrating top-notch care services, you’ll find her enjoying the simple joys of life—camping, taking long walks, and embracing the great outdoors with her family and their beloved dog.
We’re proud to have Victoria as part of the JohnJasper family, and we know our clients feel the same.

Mark

Say hello to our wonderful Field Care Supervisor, who swapped spreadsheets for support visits—and hasn’t looked back since!

Formerly a Bank Manager at Barclays, he made the bold and beautiful leap into care over 13 years ago. Why? Because, in his own words, “helping people in a meaningful way is the most life-changing kind of work there is.” And we couldn't agree more.

Since stepping into homecare and community support, he’s been a compassionate force across various care companies—until he found his perfect fit with JohnJasper Care, joining us through the acquisition of the Castrian Group.

His passion? Client satisfaction and exceptional service.
Or as he likes to say: “It’s my bread and butter!” Whether it’s smoothing out the small stuff or orchestrating outstanding care plans, he takes pride in making a real difference every single day.

And when the day is done?
You’ll find him adventuring with his grandchildren, in search of the next exciting play park. (Rumour has it, he’s on a mission to test them all!)

So whether you're already part of our JohnJasper family or just getting to know us, rest assured—you’re in expert, enthusiastic hands.

Patience

We’re thrilled to introduce Patience, our newly promoted Field Care Supervisor – and trust us, she’s as dynamic as her name is calm!

With a passion for travel, socialising, and connecting with people from all walks of life,
Patience brings a vibrant energy and deep sense of empathy to everything she does. Her love of learning about different cultures and stories is what first drew her into the world of home care – and it’s been a perfect match ever since.

Patience has worked in various care roles across Zimbabwe, South Africa, and the UK, racking up over four years of hands-on experience. She joined our team as a dedicated Home Care Worker, and through her hard work, perseverance, and an eagle eye for detail, she’s climbed the ranks to take on her new leadership role.

Before diving into care full-time, Patience also worked in a busy dental practice in South Africa, balancing duties as both a dental assistant and admin whizz. It’s no surprise she’s great at multitasking and keeping things running smoothly!

When she’s not out supporting our care teams, you’ll likely find Patience with her nose in a book, cheering on a soccer match, or watching an action-packed Bruce Willis movie – she’s a Die Hard fan through and through.

With her sights set on a managerial role in care, Patience is only just getting started – and we couldn’t be more excited to have her supporting our clients and team with her signature mix of warmth, wisdom, and humour.

Ogee

Meet Ogee – Our Problem-Solving Star at JohnJasper Care!

Since joining the JohnJasper Care family in 2022, Ogee has been a powerhouse of positivity and precision. With a sharp Maths degree in her back pocket and a mind that thrives on solving tricky puzzles, she's the one we turn to when we want things done right – and with a smile.

Ogee takes care of payroll admin, keeps our compliance game strong, and juggles all sorts of admin tasks like a pro. But her impact doesn’t stop at the spreadsheet. She’s deeply passionate about fighting inequality in her home country, Nigeria – a cause close to her heart that adds even more meaning to everything she does.

Before gracing us with her brilliance, Ogee brought her magic to a variety of roles: business support at Santander, HR admin with SSCL Shared Services and Manpower, and even a stint working for a Lord and Lady on the Isle of Skye – yes, really!

When she's not keeping the wheels turning at JohnJasper Care, you might find her deep in a whodunit mystery à la Agatha Christie or James Hadley Chase. And if you really want to make her day? Invite her on a yacht trip – travelling in style is definitely her thing.
We’re lucky to have such a vibrant, driven, and kind-hearted person on our team. Here’s to you, Ogee – you make the workplace a better place every single day!

Alex

Meet Alex – Our Operations & Talent Maestro

Alex’s career path has been anything but boring! He kicked things off in sales, swapped suits for schoolbooks as a Primary Teacher, and spent four years inspiring young minds before discovering a passion for Education Recruitment. From there, he took on extra shifts as a support worker for children and adults — because clearly, one job just wasn’t enough!

His journey continued into roles as Business Development Manager and Service Lead, supporting emergency placements for young people. Along the way, Alex earned his Level 5 qualification in Leadership and Management for Children’s Homes and became Deputy Manager of a specialist therapeutic children’s home in Newcastle.

With his mix of experience across education, care, recruitment, and therapeutic work, Alex now brings his trademark energy, empathy, and humour to JohnJasper as our Operations & Talent Manager — building the team, improving efficiency, and keeping us all on our toes (in the best way possible).

He’s passionate about helping JohnJasper Care grow its own children’s services, adding to the fantastic work we already do. When he’s not streamlining systems or supporting the team, you’ll probably find Alex outdoors, learning something new, or tinkering with his motorbikes and cars — usually with a big grin and a bit of grease on his hands.

Stephanie

Stephanie has over six years of experience in the care industry, having worked across both residential care homes and domiciliary care settings. Since joining JohnJasper Care in 2024, she has become a valued member of the team, consistently promoting our company values in her day-to-day practice. Stephanie is passionate about championing client choice, encouraging independence, and ensuring every individual receives person-centred care tailored to their needs. She is a natural listener who takes the time to speak with both clients and staff, building trusting relationships and creating a warm, supportive environment for everyone around her.

As a devoted mother to four children—one boy and three girls—Stephanie brings genuine compassion and understanding into her professional role. She is a caring, productive, and health-conscious individual who prioritises wellbeing, often making her own smoothies to maintain good nutrition. A keen learner, she enjoys using her free time to develop her knowledge and skills, continuously striving to grow both personally and professionally. Outside of work, Stephanie loves travelling and has explored many parts of the UK, with exciting family trips planned to France and Japan. She also enjoys a little pampering and the occasional weekend away—and if there’s mash potato with gravy on the menu, even better!
