We're expanding in Clydebank, and our team is on the lookout for motivated and creative *male colleagues with a positive attitude to join us as Bank Support Practitioners.

Our bank contracts offer flexibility over the days and hours you work. Tell us when you are available, and we will look to give you shifts that fit. This is a Bank (as and when required) role, meaning shifts will be offered based on service needs. If you're looking for full-time, guaranteed hours, this may not be the right fit, but if you want flexibility, we'd love to hear from you.

The Role:

As a Bank Support Practitioner in Clydebank, you will provide high-quality, person-centred support when it's needed most. You will help ensure consistent support during staff leave, sickness or training.

• A caring and empathetic nature
• Confidence with computers and digital systems
• The ability to work well both independently and within a team
• Strong organisational skills

Your responsibilities may include:

• Supporting with meal preparation and medication
• Providing personal care and assisting with moving and handling
• Supporting individuals to attend appointments and community activities
• Encouraging hobbies, interests, social opportunities and confidence-building
• Supporting with budgeting, daily living skills and personal organisation
• Providing emotional support and helping individuals maintain positive relationships

No two days are the same, and every shift offers the chance to make a meaningful difference.
