Female support only

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 Olivia, Ann and Steph:

We support three ladies in the Shawlands area of Glasgow. The ladies live in their own homes and receive support 7 days a week. They love getting out and meeting new peopke. A typical day could be going to the shops to ensure they have all the essentials they need, or even just to have a wander around their local community. In their downtime, they enjoy watching movies and just having a general blether with friends. Sadly, it’s not always possible for the ladies to enjoy what many people would consider these ‘simple pleasures’ without proper, dedicated support.

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

If you think you share the same interests and have the commitment, dedication, and above all, desire to support the ladies to get the most out of life; then 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!
