Hi, I’m W, and I live in Barrhead. I love my home and the staff team that support me to stay safe and well here.

I enjoy getting out and about in the community, going on long drives in my car and going for lunch. I have my own car, so I would need you to have a valid driving license to support me with this.

I share my home with three other males, and we have lived together for a long time. I really enjoy going to social clubs and to shows & musicals in the local theatres, so I’m always busy and doing things.

Are you ready to make a real difference to me and people like me?

When you join our team at The Mungo Foundation, you’ll enjoy numerous benefits, including:

• Access to our benefits scheme - Mungo Money, offering supermarket discounts, fuel savings, cinema & restaurant discounts, savings on your next family holiday, reduced gym membership costs, and access to our Cycle to Work Scheme.
• 33 days’ annual leave (based on 38 hours per week).
• Extensive training and development opportunities.

If successful but unqualified, you will need to work towards a suitable qualification for a post at this level, in line with the SSSC regulatory requirements, but don’t worry — we will support you with this. This role also requires a driving license to meet individual needs.

Working with us means you’re not just starting a job; you’re joining a community of dedicated individuals making a real impact in the lives of the people we support.

If you’re ready for a fulfilling career where you can be part of W’s incredible journey, apply now. Let’s make a difference together!
