Due to the ongoing development of our personalised support services, we currently have a number of job opportunities.

As a Support Worker you will join a team providing individualised support to adults with learning and other disabilities.

Successful candidates will enjoy supporting people and have a positive attitude and commitment towards making a difference to the lives of the people we support. Access to a car would be an advantage but not a requirement for the post.

Duties will include supporting people with personal care, their home and finances and to develop and maintain full and active participation in their communities. A commitment to a person centred approach is essential.

If you would like to get involved in support work but cannot commit to a contract because you have other commitments, then there are opportunities to join our register of relief workers.

Applicants must be prepared and able to work flexibly as part of the team to meet the needs of the people who use our service. Supports will include work in the evenings, weekends, and sleepovers for which an additional payment is made.

For an application form, job description and copy of our equal opportunities policy, please visit our website by the “Apply” button on this page.

Closing date for receipt of applications is 3rd June 2016.
