Personal Assistants (Support Workers) play a vital 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 with a learning disability to achieve their goals and outcomes—whatever they may be!

Each person we support has different support needs. Your role as Support Worker may include assisting with personal care, moving and handling, or positive behavioural support, while expanding their social networks and connections.

Enable creates a bespoke team around each 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 interests, hobbies, and dreams similar to ours; they often lack opportunities to experience these. A career with Enable is rewarding and diverse. Personal Assistants at their best can truly bring out the best in the people we support.
