Job description

Mencap Cymru is seeking Female Support Worker to join our incredible team in Broughton, Flintshire. This position is for 30 hours a week with the potential to pick up extra hours should you wish to. As a Support Worker, you'll have the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of individuals with learning disabilities. You will be working with a diverse group of people, each with their own unique abilities and needs. From assisting with daily activities to providing emotional support, you’ll play a vital role in their life.

What we're looking for:

• 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.
• A positive and empathetic attitude towards individuals with learning disabilities.
• This role requires you to hold a full, valid UK driving licence and have access to your own car.

Contract options:

Part-time (30 hours)

Most of our services are 24hr care. We prepare the rotas at least 4 weeks in advance so you can still plan your personal and social life!

There is also a non-contractual sleep-in available where you will receive an enhanced flat rate payment of £64.20.

All roles are subject to an enhanced DBS check and suitable references, one of which, must be your most recent/current employer. If you have had more than 1 employer of the last 3 years, we will require a reference from each employer within that time period.

You must hold a clean, valid UK driving licence as this is essential for the role.

We are an equitable, diverse and inclusive organisation and we particularly welcome and encourage disabled applicants and those from the Black and Asian communities to apply for the role as they are under-represented within the workforce.

Please note: This position does not meet the minimum salary requirements for a Health and Care visa under the UK Skilled Worker route, as set by the Home Office. Therefore, although Mencap is a licensed sponsor, we are unable to offer sponsorship for this role. Applicants must already have the legal right to work in the UK, as we are not able to support new visa applications or sponsorship requests for this vacancy.
