About The Role
Now we\u2019ve shared a glimpse of what it\u2019s like to work for us, let us introduce ourselves. We\u2019re Salutem and we are committed to making a positive impact on the lives of thousands of children and adults in England and Wales across our residential homes, schools and day centres. Our dedicated support teams empower individuals to overcome any obstacles and live the life they choose.
Each day will be different, and the main focus of your role is to provide daily support to adults in our residential services. It’s definitely not a normal 9-5, you can work days, nights, and flexible shifts too. Talking of ‘dream’ jobs, some of our shifts are sleep-ins!
We want the best for everyone we support and that\u2019s what makes us a family. If you have the ability to support someone to feel at home, be their true self, and do what makes their heart happy - we want to hear from you. This is a meaningful role and will suit someone who is looking to make a difference and make memories that\u2019ll last a lifetime.
We know our staff put 100% into building brighter futures for the individuals we support. That\u2019s why we offer career progression no matter where you start in the organisation. Your progress here will be regularly reviewed and as you gain expertise your rate of pay will increase. We believe in creating a Career from Care and we want the support workers we recruit now to become our managers of the future!
We’re committed to supporting the wellbeing of our team and our benefits package has something for everyone – including these key highlights:
* Competency Frameworks and Pay Scales – development and reward initiative with clear career pathways, progression & promotion opportunities, and pay scales to work towards

As an organisation, we\u2019re committed to supporting our teams and offering a range of perks that look after your financial, mental, emotional and physical wellbeing.
We have a massive duty of care towards those we support who are often the most vulnerable in society, which is why our staff are encouraged to keep up to date with vaccines and focus on self-care too.
