About the Client and Role

We’re looking for a kind, enthusiastic, and reliable support worker to join a small care team in Worsley.

• Desirable: Previous care experience, experience supporting adults with physical disabilities, an interest in therapy, and a willingness to try new things.
• Driver: Desirable but not essential.
• Vehicle Use: May involve driving a wheelchair-adapted vehicle or occasionally using your own car.

What You’ll Receive

• Ongoing training and support (including The Care Certificate)
• 5.6 weeks annual leave (pro rata)
• Pension scheme (subject to eligibility)
• Sick pay entitlement
• Free enhanced DBS check
• Regular supervision and support from the Team Leader, Case Manager, and HR team

Our Values

• Supportive – we work together and lift each other up
• Client-Centred – you’ll help our client live life to the fullest
