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

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 needs, so your role may include assisting with personal care, moving and handling, or positive behavioural support, while helping expand their social networks and connections.

Enable creates a bespoke team around each individual, working collaboratively to ensure their safety, wellbeing, and aspirations are met.

The Best in You Brings Out the Best in Me

The people we support have diverse interests and hobbies and share many dreams and aspirations. They just often lack the opportunity to pursue them. Whatever your interests—sewing, baking, having a chat over a cup of tea, horse riding, swimming, or hill-walking—we want to hear from you!

A career with Enable is rewarding and diverse. Personal Assistants who are at their best can truly bring out the best in the people we support.

If you share our values and have the commitment, dedication, and desire to support individuals in living fulfilling lives and becoming inclusive members of society, please apply now! Enable needs you to help create an equal society for everyone with a learning disability.

You do not need previous care experience to start your social care career with Enable. We recruit based on values and transferable skills. Whatever your background, join us to forge a new, rewarding path!

Successful applicants will demonstrate:

1. The ability to adapt your communication style to develop successful relationships with the people we support.
2. A commitment to working with individuals through their personal support plans to help them achieve their goals and celebrate their successes.
3. A positive, flexible outlook and the ability to work independently and as part of a team.

If this describes you, please click the link to apply now. Every person we support has unique hobbies and interests, which are reflected in our person-centred recruitment process. Please share as much about yourself as possible to enable us to match you effectively.
