Job Advert
JOB ID: 3336
We are looking for Support Workers to join one of our Services in Llangennech on either a part-time or full-time (37.5 hours a week) basis. Shifts will include mornings, afternoons, evenings, sleep-ins, weekends, and bank holidays.
We are flexible with the hours offered and welcome applications from all interested candidates.
You must be able to drive, have knowledge of the wider area, and be comfortable supporting residents with mobility cars. A full UK or EU driving licence is required, and candidates must be 21 or over. Ideally, you will also have access to your own car due to limited public transport options.
About our Services
We are four adults sharing a home. We enjoy activities like sports, shopping, dining out, baking, holidays, visiting the beach, working on computers and phones, art courses, and biking. We love attending concerts when possible.
Some of us can speak, others are non-verbal.
Our services provide support throughout the day and night. Current shifts include 8am to 8pm, 8am to 10pm, 12pm to 7pm, and 8:30pm to 10pm. Many staff prefer long shifts to have more rest days, and there are also waking night shifts and sleep-ins.
What does a Support Worker do?
You will provide outstanding support to help individuals live comfortable, dignified, liberated, and happy lives. Key qualities include excellent communication, caring nature, and patience. Responsibilities may include:
* Supporting independent living—budgeting, paying bills, housework, appointments, and cooking.
* Building relationships and supporting understanding of the world around them.
* Promoting community and social inclusion—accessing local activities and events.
* Personal care—helping with daily routines, medication prompts, bathing, and bathroom use. Not all roles involve high levels of personal care.
