Job description

Make a real difference while supporting someone to live life to the fullest!

Are you a compassionate, patient and reliable Support Worker looking for a rewarding role where you can build a genuine connection with the person you support?

At Active Assistance, we're looking for a Female Support Worker to join a friendly, dedicated team supporting a gentleman in Lanner who is living with an Acquired Brain Injury (ABI).

Meet The Client:

You'll be supporting a friendly gentleman with a brilliant sense of humour who enjoys good company, music and making the most of each day.

He's a big fan of music from the 60s, 70s and 80s, so there's often a great soundtrack playing throughout the day!

He also enjoys getting involved in the kitchen, particularly when there's baking to be done, and loves heading out in his adapted van. Trips to the seafront are a firm favourite, especially when there's an ice cream involved!

As a wheelchair user, he requires support with mobility and everyday activities. He also experiences some speech difficulties, so a patient approach, good listening skills and clear communication will help you build a positive and trusting relationship.

Your role will be about much more than providing care. You'll be encouraging independence, supporting his wellbeing and helping him continue enjoying the things that matter most to him.

When you'll be working:

We currently have the following shifts available:

• Day Shifts: 8:00am – 8:00pm (2/3 days per week)

You'll be part of a consistent care team supporting one individual, giving you the opportunity to really get to know the person you're supporting.

Although this is a flexible zero-hours contract, the work is ongoing, with regular weekly shifts and rotas planned in advance, typically offering a stable and predictable working pattern.

What you'll have:

• You must have the right to work in the United Kingdom

• Full UK driving licence

• Care experience is essential

What to look forward to:

• Pay up to £14.50/hour (based on experience)
• Paid DBS check and induction training
• Consistent work schedule for stability
• Holiday pay & Nest pension
• Recognition through our Active Awards programme
• Refer-a-Friend scheme – earn up to £1,000!
• Incredible support from our clinical and business leadership team

*Please note we are recruiting a Female Support Worker due to a genuine occupational requirement of the person we support therefore this role is exempt from the Equality Act 2010 Part Schedule 9

At Active Care Group we want everyone to feel welcome and supported. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences. If you need any reasonable adjustments during the recruitment or interview process, just let us know and we’d be very happy to discuss this with you
