Are you interested in working for an award winning social care charity?

Personal Assistants (Support Workers) have the most important role within Enable by making a positive difference every day to the lives of the people we support. No two days are the same for our Personal Assistants but what we can guarantee is that you will be supporting someone who requires support to achieve their goals and outcomes – whatever they may be!

Each person we support has different support requirements, so your role as Support Worker may include assisting them with various aspects of personal care, moving and handling or positive behavioural support whilst expanding their social networks and connections.

Enable creates a bespoke team around every individual we support, and our team of Personal Assistants work collaboratively to ensure the safety, wellbeing and aspirations of the people we support are met.

The Best in You Brings Out the Best in Me

The people we support have many varied interests and hobbies and have many of the same dreams and aspirations as we do; they just too often do not get the opportunity to experience these same opportunities. A career with Enable is as rewarding as it is diverse, Personal Assistants at their best have the potential to truly bring out the best in the people we support.

Let us introduceyou to Alan:

Alan is a sociable and independent gentleman who enjoys keeping busy and making the most of his life. He loves getting out and about and staying active within his local community.

During the week Alan works hard at a local garden centre, which is an important part of his routine and independence. When he is not working, Alan enjoys gardening at home, baking and going fishing. These interests are big part of Alan's life, and he is looking for a friendly, enthusiastic support worker who can share in these activities and encourage him to continue doing the things he loves.

Alan requires support with medication and meals, but it is important that his independence is always encouraged and respected. Alan receives support throughout the day and night, except when he is attending his work. Shift patterns include overnight support of full 24hr shifts starting at 11am and partial shifts starting at 12:40 and 14:30.

That is why Alan needs you! Will you bring your best so that Alan can live his best life?

Enable needs you and your values to help us create an equal society for every person we support.

You don't need experience in care to start your social care career with Enable.

We recruit people based on their values and transferrable skills. Wherever your journey has taken you up until now, join us, and together we will forge a new path in what could potentially be the most rewarding role you have ever had!
