About the role..

Do you want a career where you can make a genuine difference every day? We are looking for caring, enthusiastic and flexible individuals to join our Short Breaks Service, supporting adults with learning disabilities to live fulfilling, independent lives. Based in our purpose-built accommodation, you'll provide person-centred support with all aspects of daily living, including personal care, medication, managing finances and accessing activities within the local community. Above all, you'll promote dignity, choice and respect, helping people achieve positive outcomes and enjoy the life they want to live.

As a Community Support Worker, you will:

  • Support adults with learning disabilities, including those with profound and complex needs, using a person-centred approach to help them achieve the outcomes identified in their support plans.
  • Provide high-quality support with daily living tasks, including personal care, while promoting dignity, independence and choice.
  • Enable people to access a wide range of social, recreational and community-based activities, such as swimming, walking, bowling, dancing and shopping.
  • Work in line with relevant legislation, policies and best practice guidelines to ensure safe, effective and person-centred support.

About you...

Experience working with adults with learning disabilities is desirable but not essential, as full training and ongoing support will be provided. If you do not already hold an NVQ Level 3 qualification, you will be supported to complete a fully funded Level 3 Diploma in Health and Social Care within your first two years of employment, where applicable.

Please refer to the Role Profile for full details of the skills, experience and qualifications required for this role.

What we offer...

  • Full induction and ongoing training.
  • Opportunities for personal and professional development.
  • A rewarding career making a real difference to people's lives.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
