This is a highly rewarding role that focuses on helping the student access the activities they enjoy, build confidence, and engage with the community in a positive, structured way.

- Hair, beauty and makeup sessions
- Outdoor walks and nature-based activities
- Fitness and gym sessions
- Pilates and other structured exercise
- Community-based sessions linked to personal development
The aim is to provide calm, consistent, person-centred support to help the student develop independence, confidence and emotional stability.
- 8:30am-3:30pm, Monday to Friday
- ASAP start
- Role involves regular local travel; therefore, a full driving licence and access to a vehicle are essential
- Mileage and the cost of adding business insurance will be covered
- The student is Manningtree-based, so proximity or easy commute is preferred
- Experience supporting young people with ASD is highly desirable
- An understanding of, or experience with, mental health needs, especially eating disorders, anxiety, or self-image concerns
- A calm, empathetic and patient approach
- Someone active, engaging and confident supporting community-based activities
- Reliability, professionalism and the ability to build trust with the student
- A person-centred, non-judgemental attitude, with the ability to encourage positive routines and healthy habits
- A highly fulfilling role with real impact on a young person's wellbeing and independence
- Mileage and business insurance costs fully covered
- Support from a dedicated team who listen and understand the complexities of the student's needs
- The chance to help a young person access meaningful activities and build confidence in their daily life
Applications are being reviewed upon receipt - early application is strongly encouraged. If you know someone flexible, compassionate and confident supporting young people with SEN and mental health needs, this could be the perfect role.
