Working closely with the Service Leader and Support Worker Team, you will support one gentleman with learning disabilities to live his day to day life. He has lived in his own home, with support, for the last 18 years and thrives with caring, patient staff who take the time to get to know him.
He is a quiet man who likes to be really active and he is looking for enthusiastic staff who are happy supporting him with the things he enjoys. Since he loves to get out and about, our ideal candidate will be local to the area and knowledgeable about what it has to offer.
We provide support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and this is a lone working service, so someone with a support background who is comfortable spending time themselves would be perfect!
Our Shifts:
Mon-Sat: 8am - 8.15am the next day (includes sleepover)
Sun: 8am - 5pm, then 8.45pm - 8am the next day (includes sleepover)
Shift Requirement: Shifts will change from week to week in line with the above pattern - some weekend work and sleepovers are required
Contract: We are currently recruiting for a 16-hour and a 30-hour permanent contract. We can also accommodate flexible bank staff.
UK Driving License Required? Yes, with own car (due to location of service) - must be over age 25 due to insurance requirements as this role involves driving the gentleman's vehicle
What You'll Be Doing
You’ll be supporting this gentleman in his own home and live life the way he wants to live it! He enjoys lots of different activities, so come prepared to go swimming, go out for walks in the park, enjoy some gardening, fire up the BBQ, visit castles, play pool and go to discos.
