About the role:
As a Waking Night Support Worker with our client you’ll be supporting adults with learning disabilities to live the best life possible.

Waking Night Support Workers are required to remain awake throughout the night to support individuals with personal support needs as required.
Our client provides 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 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.
Due to the rural nature of the area a full, current UK/EU driving licence is an essential.
Join us and help us change lives.
