Are you an enthusiastic people person who loves to bring the fun? As an Activities Coordinator, you’ll organise and lead meaningful and entertaining activities for the people we support. You’ll play a key role in empowering them to live fulfilled and happy lives.

This is an exciting opportunity to make a real difference every day. Join us as our new Activities Coordinator/Life Skills Coordinator at Havenmere care home in Immingham.

Exemplar Health Care began as a healthcare consultancy and training firm. But we soon saw a gap in the sector: a lack of care homes for younger adults living with complex needs. That insight shaped the mission we still live by today – to transform complex care and provide fulfilling opportunities for the people who need it most. We’re now proud to have more than 60 care homes across England, providing nursing care for adults living with dementia, neuro‑disabilities, mental health conditions, and physical disabilities. We support adults living with neurological conditions and neuro‑disabilities including brain injuries and Huntington’s disease, complex mental health needs and spinal injuries. As well as stable and secure employment opportunities, we offer great benefits and perks, and plenty of opportunities to learn, develop and progress. Whoever you are, and whatever experience you bring, there are lots of ways you can help us make every day better for the people we support. Whether your goals are in care, nursing, management, quality or support, we provide the confidence, skills and knowledge to help you excel in your role and advance your career, if you wish. Happy, healthy colleagues mean better care for those we support. We offer a range of initiatives to ensure our colleagues thrive in safe and supportive environments. From paid RCNi Learning access and NMC PIN payments for nurses to lifestyle and retail discounts for everyone, our rewards ensure your career is as fulfilling as it is rewarding. From care homes to central support services, everyone plays a vital role. Hear from colleagues across various roles about what it’s like to work with us.

Our Activities Coordinators organise creative and fun activities for the people we support. No two days will ever be the same, but your day‑to‑day responsibilities will include:

• organising individual activity plans based on people’s unique goals and interests
• fostering community spirit through group activities
• supporting people to maintain their current, and take up new, hobbies, interests and educational opportunities
• assist people to become more involved in their local community
• celebrate national awareness days, holidays and individual/collective achievements
• promote choice, dignity and independence.

Above all, you’re someone who identifies with our values of fun, integrity, responsiveness, success and teamwork. You’re also:

• caring, kind and able to see the funny side of life
• a creative thinker, always on the lookout for new activities and ideas
• enthusiastic, encouraging and inclusive
• a born organiser with a positive, can‑do approach
• great at listening and communicating
• understanding of individual needs.

You’ll put people at the heart of everything you do. If you haven’t worked in the care sector before, we’ll help you feel right at home from the start with our induction, buddy and ongoing training programmes. We value relevant experience and qualifications, but they aren’t essential for this role.

• regular supervision, peer support, learning opportunities and career prospects
• access to wages before payday
• retail and lifestyle discounts
• free DBS check
• 24/7 counselling and support
• Blue Light Card eligibility.
