Full Job Description

Supporting individuals with Learning Disabilities and Autism means embracing their unique journey. Every day brings new opportunities to explore interests, from a peaceful walk in the park to enjoying a favourite café or engaging in their hobbies. Your role is to empower and connect, helping them navigate life with confidence and independence.

"Gender is considered to be a genuine occupational requirement in accordance with paragraph 1 of Schedule 9 of the Equality Act 2010". How will I make a difference? As a support worker you'll be there to lend a helping hand in a way that puts the person's needs first, this means:

  • You will adapt your support to fit what each person needs and wants daily.
  • You will encourage people to make their own choices, big and small.
  • You will help people to do things themselves to be as independent as possible.
  • You will support people to build confidence and life skills.
  • You will support people to be a part of their community, joining local clubs and connecting with friends and family.
  • You will be understanding, allowing people to take their time and do things at their own pace.
  • You will celebrate people's achievements, no matter how small they might seem to others.
  • What benefits will I have? We have a range of benefits that you can mix and match to suit you, such as:
  • Care Friends - our employee referral and reward app. You'll receive points which can be exchanged for extra money.
  • Wagestream - an app that gives you access to a percentage of your pay as you earn it, access to coaching, vouchers, discounts, cashback and more.
  • Blue light card - we will reimburse your Blue Light Card membership which provides discounts in your favourite shops and restaurants.
  • Simply Health - Fully funded health cash plans giving you access to a 24-hour GP, money back on prescriptions, dental treatment, opticians and access to many more health benefits.
  • Vivup - spread the cost of home and electronics items, or a bike to cycle to work through fixed salary reductions throughout the year.
  • Buy and sell annual leave - transfer windows open twice a year.
  • Pension and Life Assurance - you'll be enrolled into our Scottish Widows pension scheme and Life Assurance scheme.
  • If you're ready to make a positive impact and support others in achieving their goals, we'd love to hear from you. Join us in creating an environment where everyone can thrive. If you are offered a role with us, you will need to complete an enhanced DBS check. We will submit your application and pay for your check. We reserve the right to close this advert early if sufficient applications are received.
