Job description

Ready for a fresh start? Discover a job where you can make a real difference!

Are you looking for a role where no two days are the same, you get to meet great people, learn new skills and go home knowing you've made someone's day a little better?

Whether you're completely new to care and looking for somewhere to start, or already working in support and ready for a new challenge, we'd love to hear from you!

Our friendly and welcoming teams in Dumbarton and Renton are looking for new colleagues to join them on a permanent, part-time basis (20–30 hours per week).

What makes this role special?

You’ll be supporting people in their own homes, helping them live life their way, make their own choices and enjoy the things that matter to them.

It’s about much more than providing support with everyday tasks. It’s about getting to know people, building friendships and being part of their lives.

One day you could be helping someone prepare their favourite meal, the next you might be heading out for lunch at the pub, enjoying a pottery class or discovering somewhere new on a day trip!

You’ll share experiences, celebrate achievements, encourage independence and, most importantly, have plenty of opportunities to make a positive difference.

Successful candidates will be required to join the Protection of Vulnerable Groups Scheme and be committed to working towards an SVQ in Social Services and Healthcare with the support from our Training Academy.

If you’re successful in joining our team, we will need you to register with the SSSC within 3 months of starting your employment with us.

Please note - If you have spent more than 12 months out with the UK (excluding France, Germany. Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania or Spain) within the last 10 years while over the age of 18, you will be asked to provide a criminal record certificate from the relevant government/police authority as part of our pre‑employment checks.
