Job description

Every Day is Different. Every Day Matters.

Looking for a role where you can laugh, learn, make a difference, and go home knowing you've genuinely changed someone's day?

Join our amazing team at Tulloch Hill, Perth, where no two days are ever the same! We're looking for caring and enthusiastic Female Support Workers* to become part of our supportive, fun-loving team and help people with complex needs live happy, fulfilling, and independent lives.

Welcome to Tulloch Hill

Tulloch Hill is a unique and welcoming service made up of two adjoining bungalows, supporting five incredible individuals. While everyone enjoys the comfort of their own home, the heart of our service is our shared kitchen, dining area, and beautiful communal garden, where friendships flourish, meals are shared, and plenty of laughter is heard.

Whether it's baking, gardening, arts and crafts, enjoying a movie night, heading out into the community, or simply spending time together, there's always something happening at Tulloch Hill.

Most importantly, it's a place where people feel valued, respected, and supported to be themselves.

Why You'll Love Working Here

Our team is known for being:

• Friendly and welcoming
• Supportive and encouraging
• Passionate about making a difference
• Great at celebrating successes, big and small

We genuinely care about each other as much as we care about the people we support, creating a positive workplace where everyone can thrive.

What Will You Be Doing?

As a Female Support Worker, you'll help people live life on their own terms, supporting them to achieve goals, build confidence, and enjoy the things that matter most to them.

Your role could include:

• Supporting with personal care and daily living routines
• Assisting with cooking, meal preparation, and household tasks
• Supporting individuals with complex needs, including epilepsy and PICA awareness
• Encouraging independence and developing everyday life skills
• Helping people enjoy hobbies, activities, holidays, and community outings
• Working alongside families and healthcare professionals
• Following support plans and maintaining accurate records
• Creating a safe, positive, and empowering environment every day

One moment you might be supporting someone to learn a new skill, the next you could be out enjoying a trip into the local community, celebrating an achievement, or helping someone achieve a personal goal.

Shift Patterns

We know work-life balance matters, which is why we offer a flexible rota that includes:

• Early Shift: 7:30am - 3:00pm
• Late Shift: 2:00pm - 10:00pm
• Night Shift: 10:00pm - 8:00am

We're always happy to discuss flexible working options wherever possible.

More Than Just Colleagues

At Tulloch Hill, you'll be joining more than a workplace, you'll become part of a community.

We regularly get together with our colleagues from our Bridge of Earn service for social events, team celebrations, coffee catch-ups, meals out, bowling nights, and much more. We believe great teams deserve time to connect, celebrate success, and have fun together.

Could This Be You?

We're looking for someone who is:

• Kind, caring, and compassionate
• Positive, enthusiastic, and willing to learn
• Passionate about supporting people to achieve their goals
• A great team player who enjoys working with others
• Looking for a rewarding career where every day makes a difference

Experience is welcome, but your values, attitude, and commitment to helping others are what matter most.

Please note and consider before applying:

• This is a Female Support Worker role. For this position, female is an Occupational Requirement as defined by the Equality Act 2010*
• Flexibility is required to meet the needs of the service
• We do NOT currently offer visa sponsorship for our vacancies and would therefore ask that you do not apply if you require sponsorship
