We're looking for a passionate, caring and enthusiastic Full-Time Support Worker to join our friendly and dedicated team in Thorpe Willoughby.
Drivers are preferred for this role.
Previous experience in care would be an advantage, but it's certainly not essential. What matters most is having the right attitude, a genuine passion for supporting others and a willingness to learn. Full training will be provided!
As a Support Worker, you'll have the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of four men with learning disabilities. Every individual is unique, with their own personalities, abilities, interests and support needs, so no two days are quite the same!

Your role will include:
-
Supporting with personal care and daily living.
-
Helping to keep the home running smoothly through household tasks and everyday routines.
-
Planning and enjoying activities, trips and outings.
-
Supporting individuals to pursue their interests, make choices and try new things.
-
Helping them maintain relationships, meet the people they want to meet and enjoy an active, fulfilling life.
Our service operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Day shifts vary and can include starts from 7am and finishes up to 10pm, with a range of different shift patterns in between.
What we're really looking for is someone who is kind, reliable, positive and ready to get involved. Someone who understands that the little things can make a big difference and who wants to help people live life their way.
If you're looking for a rewarding role where you can make a genuine difference, develop new skills and be part of a dedicated team, we'd love to hear from you!

- A genuine passion for supporting others.
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to build meaningful relationships.
- Flexibility to work various shifts, including evenings, weekends, and holidays.
