About The Company

The Menna House Support team are recruiting!

Menna House is a 5-bed residential home and a former farmhouse situated in a quiet rural location near the village of Grampound Road which lies just off the main road between the ancient mining town of St Austell and Truro. At Menna House we don\'t just provide care for the people we support, we help them to achieve their goals and aspirations while living their best lives!

We\'re looking for new work-family members to help the individuals we support fulfil their dreams and help them thrive in all they want to do. The individuals we support enjoy many activities such as visiting the local harbour and shipwreck museum. There\'s Porthpean Beach where we all enjoy visiting for ice cream in the sunshine!

If you could support individuals with disabilities to live the life they choose, please get in touch. At Salutem Care and Education, we recognise the value and wisdom that come from all stages of life. Join our team to be a part of a community that truly appreciates the richness of age diversity.

About The Role

Now we\'ve shared a glimpse of what it\'s like to work for us, let us introduce ourselves. We\'re Salutem and we are committed to making a positive impact on the lives of thousands of children and adults in England and Wales across our residential homes, schools and day centres. Our dedicated support teams empower individuals to overcome any obstacles and live the life they choose.

Each day will be different, and the main focus of your role is to provide daily support to adults in our residential services. It\'s definitely not a normal 9-5, you can work days, nights, and flexible shifts too. Talking of \'dream\' jobs, some of our shifts are sleep-ins!

We want the best for everyone we support and that\'s what makes us a family. If you have the ability to support someone to feel at home, be their true self, and do what makes their heart happy - we want to hear from you. This is a meaningful role and will suit someone who is looking to make a difference and make memories that\'ll last a lifetime.

We know our staff put 100% into building brighter futures for the individuals we support. That\'s why we offer career progression no matter where you start in the organisation. Your progress here will be regularly reviewed and as you gain expertise your rate of pay will increase. We believe in creating a Career from Care and we want the support workers we recruit now to become our managers of the future!

We\'re committed to supporting the wellbeing of our team and our benefits package has something for everyone - including these key highlights:

• Competency Frameworks and Pay Scales - We have a development and reward initiative in place for all our individual colleagues and teams, showing clear career pathways, progression & promotion opportunities, and pay scales to work towards if desired.
• Blue Light Card - Working in social care, all our staff qualify for thousands of discounts in shops, restaurants, and venues on the high street with a Blue Light Card. You can register to get 2-years access to the Blue Light Card for £4.99 and reclaim this cost via our expenses process.
• Wagestream - Any day can be payday with Wagestream, as you can withdraw some of your wages earned early.
• Care Friends, Refer-a-Friend Scheme - Instantly earn points and cash rewards for referring people you know for roles at Salutem.
• Sovereign Health Care Plan - Affordable cover to help with your healthcare and private medical costs.
• Canada Life, Group Life Assurance - To protect all our staff from day one of employment, we provide a Death in Service benefit via Canada Life, which is offered at 1 x your annual salary.
• Blink, our internal communications app - Giving you a voice and a sense of community across the organisation.
• Pension scheme - for all qualifying staff
• Free DBS check (Disclosure and Barring Service)

As an organisation, we\'re committed to supporting our teams and offering a range of perks that look after your financial, mental, emotional and physical wellbeing.
