Job description

Do you love being out and about, getting stuck in, and knowing your work truly makes a difference? We’re looking for compassionate Support Workers to join our friendly team in Haverhill.

Life here is active, social and varied. The people we support enjoy trips to the gym and swimming pool, catching up with family and friends, going out for lunch and even the occasional show. No two days look the same, and you’ll be right there alongside them encouraging independence, building confidence and sharing great moments.

This is more than just a job. It’s about empowering people to live the lives they choose. You will be supporting with daily routines, household tasks, attending appointments and getting out into the community. Most importantly, you’ll be helping create opportunities, choices and meaningful experiences every single day.

We’re currently offering full-time, part-time and relief contracts. Shifts range from 7am to 10pm, with sleep‑ins from 10pm until 7am.

A full UK driving licence is essential, as you’ll be driving the vehicles of the people we support to help them stay active and connected.

In return, you’ll receive full training, ongoing development opportunities and the support of a welcoming team. Most of all, you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing that what you do genuinely matters.

If you’re reliable, caring and ready to bring positivity into people’s lives, apply today and start a career that makes a real difference.
