• Helping with cooking and everyday household tasks
• Supporting with medication
• Assisting with budgeting and developing life skills
• Encouraging confidence, independence and personal goals
• Providing personal care where needed (only for a small number of people)

• 37.5 hours per week.
• Choose your own work hours between 8:00am and 10:00pm (occasionally until 11:00pm)
• One weekend every other week
• Sleep-ins paid at £69.76 per shift (available but not compulsory)
• Overtime paid at £13.45

• Kind, patient and compassionate
• Positive, approachable and dependable
• A good communicator
• Respectful of people's choices and individuality
• Keen to help others build confidence and independence

we'd love to hear from you.

Experience in care or support work is required, but it's your attitude and values that really matter.

Why join?

Alongside a rewarding career, you'll receive an excellent benefits package including:

• Enhanced annual leave
• Paid birthday or celebration day off
• One paid volunteering day each year
• Enhanced sick pay
• Enhanced employer pension contributions
• Death in service benefit
