Senior Support Worker

I am actively seeking a forward thinking, motivated and person centred SENIOR SUPPORT WORKER to join a state of the art Supported Living service for adults with learning disabilities and behaviours which may prove challenging, based in the Birmingham area.

You will join an organisation that has a handful of small, well established services that have a great reputation for providing person centred care and support and making a difference to the people who live here.

Employed on a full time basis - You will be PROACTIVE, SUPPORTIVE and FORWARD THINKING. A real "can do" attitude is essential to be successful in this Senior role. Be prepared to hit the ground running! You will split your time between working on the floor, delivering person centred care and also overseeing delegated senior duties.

You will effectively assist to lead a team of staff and will ensure that all care delivered is in line with CQC and company guidelines. Your priority will be to ensure that the people you support lead a full, independent and healthy lifestyle that promotes independence, choice, dignity and respect.

This is the perfect opportunity for an experienced support worker or senior who is seeking the next step on the career ladder. You will be able to demonstrate excellent team management and delegation skills, and be committed to delivering care that has positive outcomes.

You will have proven shift/team leading experience. You will be competent in managing the service in the manager's absence and handling all situations.

In return for your excellent shift leading skills and learning disabilities knowledge, you will receive a competitive salary in the region of £18,200 per annum, with the option of overtime. Shift patterns are full shifts at 08:00-20:00.
