Are you ready to make a positive difference – join our exceptional support team in Symington!

Are you passionate about empowering others and creating meaningful change? We’re looking for dedicated, compassionate individuals to support three incredible women with learning disabilities who live together in a beautifully adapted home in the heart of our Broadmeadow’s Estate, Symington.

These women lead unique and fulfilling lives, and we’re seeking support workers who can help them thrive as equal and active citizens. You’ll be part of a close-knit, highly skilled team providing person centred support that includes:

  • Specialist health and physical care (PEG feeding, PEP masks, track hoisting)
  • Non-verbal communication techniques
  • Working alongside community health professionals
  • Encouraging active participation in community life

Each person has their own adapted vehicle, so a manual driving licence is essential!

This is more than just a job – it’s a chance to learn new skills, build strong relationships, and experience the joy of making a positive impact every single day.

If you’re looking for new opportunities in a truly rewarding role, we’d love to hear from you!

What We’re Looking For:

 

·       A caring, adaptable, and enthusiastic attitude

·       Experience in care is desirable, but not essential — we provide full training!

·       Willingness to work a variety of shifts (rotas are built around the people we support)

·       A commitment to equality, inclusion, and person-centred support

 

What You’ll Get:

 

·       Full induction, shadowing, and ongoing training

·       Opportunity to gain an SVQ in Health & Social Care

·       24/7 on-call management support

·       Paid travel time and expenses if travelling between supports

·       Competitive holiday entitlement

·       Free health cashback plan & employee assistance programme

·       Occupational sick pay, refer-a-friend scheme, and high street discounts

·       At least one weekend off in every three
