Available shifts will include weekdays, evenings, weekends, bank holidays and sleep-ins.

As well as providing direct care and support, you will have the opportunity to support people to achieve their dreams and goals. Many of the service users will be young adults and this may be their first experience of living in their own home, with your support and mentoring they will be able to establish a full and positive lifestyle.

You will need some relevant experience of supporting people with a learning disability, autism or other support needs. You must have a ‘can-do approach’, person-centred values, energy and commitment.
