Your day as a Support Worker will involve assisting the people we support in various ways bespoke to their care plans. It could include helping the individual with food preparation, shopping, accessing the community, providing personal care, and administering medication.



This could be perfect if you want a role where every day is different, and you want to help your community. We provide a comprehensive training programme, so you don't need experience to join us; you need a willingness to learn and a commitment to creating unlimited possibilities for the people we support.



​The shift pattern is ​8 am – 3 pm and 3 pm -10 pm and includes working alternative weekends and 1 'sleep in' shift per week.



​​In addition to the feel good factor, other reasons to join us include…


 •  "Refer a friend" scheme - earn £400 per person you successfully refer!
 •  Overtime paid at competitive rates
 •  Comprehensive training programme consisting of 12 weeks of in-house, on-site and online training, accompanied by shadowing, coaching and mentoring
 •  The opportunity to join our neurodiversity network led by colleagues to ensure the voice of neurodiverse people remains central to our thinking and decision-making
 •  Annual leave increases with each service year – up to 33 days!
 •  Exclusive access to our employee portal, home to discounts on days out and hundreds of high street and online stores.
 •  Health cashback plan to receive money back for dental, options and other treatments
 •  Salary sacrifice schemes for various electrical devices and bikes ​and many more
 •  A 24 Hour Employee Assistance Programme that provides practical information and support on issues like money management, family and legal information
 •  The opportunity to continue your professional development with accredited qualifications once you've passed your probation period
