About the role:
As a Support Worker with our client you’ll be supporting adults with learning disabilities to live the best life possible. In these roles, everything you do will enable people to have choices about their own lives, creating flexible services that meet people’s needs and always looking for the best way of doing things.
You’ll go to work knowing that you’re making a positive difference to someone’s life, and you’ll be working in a team of skilled, dedicated colleagues who’ll support you all the way.
They provide 24/7 support to some people, so this role would suit you if you like the idea of working shifts and hours that include some weekends, nights and Bank Holidays.
About you:
You don’t need experience of support work or any special qualifications for this job - you’ll get plenty of training along the way.
It’s great if you already have experience of learning disabilities, autism or dementia, but this is by no means essential. What matters most is your positive attitude to life and your desire to support people to live their life with as much independence, choice, dignity and control as possible.
