We've got an opportunity...

Do you love helping people in need? Are you looking for first class training and development opportunities from a world-renowned charity? We are looking for passionate and enthusiastic individuals with great people skills to join our Independent Living team.

At the British Red Cross, we put the people that need us at the heart of what we do. The role will involve you helping to transport service users home from hospital, and providing practical and emotional support to service users to help them get resettled in their own homes. Due to the nature of this service, this role can be emotionally and physically demanding. But it can also be rewarding; you are helping vulnerable people across the community.

Not only will your role allow people to enjoy healthier, more fulfilling lives, but a career within Independent Living can be both rewarding and satisfying, providing extensive progression opportunities, and allowing you to build meaningful relationships with both colleagues and service users.

This service runs 5 days a week, Monday - Friday, between 9 - 5pm (though we may offer services at the weekends if its needed). We can be flexible with the hours you work between these times. There are two positions available (16 or 24 hours per week). These 2 roles are initially offered until 31st January 2022, but we hope they will get extended. All this can be discussed further at interview.


Say hello to the team...

The Independent Living & Crisis Response service (IL/CR) supports people in the space between hospital and home and responds to the needs of people in crisis following an emergency; maintaining an extensive network of external relationships across health, social care, and emergency services.

This role could be for you if…

• You can make things great. You know how to improve service quality for the benefit of users.
• You're professional. You can deal with queries in a diplomatic and confidential manner.
• You are caring. You love helping people and understand the positive impact you are having on their lives.
