Become a Support Worker with Active Prospects!
Do you want to work for an award‑winning company? We have recently won the Employer of the Year Award at the Learning Disabilities and Autism Awards 2024. We were also awarded with the UK’s Best Workplaces 2024 by Great Places to Work UK!. Our training team has also won many national and regional awards and is viewed as outstanding by our colleagues.
Following our most recent national award the judges’ comments were ‘a very inspirational business that aims high to deliver excellence in all areas and supports people to lead aspiring lives. A strong family feel where staff are rewarded, valued and supported to maximise their potential. Staff see opportunity which is harnessed to incredible effect. The business's passion and ambition shone through making them worthy winners.’
Our service is for four people requiring a wide range of support from emotional support, learning new coping mechanisms, and being able to express their true selves. We currently provide several hours of 1:1 support during the day and some shared support day and night. The ideal people will have a passion for working with people with enduring mental health, a keen interest in the psychology behind complex behaviours that challenge and the willingness to learn and practice Positive Behaviour Support.
You will need to be adaptable, flexible, mature and be able to support our people to gain back their independence through empowerment, active support, positive risk‑taking and out‑of‑the‑box thinking. It is important to note that some people being supported may self‑harm, have anxiety or on occasion show behaviours of concern. The role can be tough, but the rewards outweigh.
This service is close to public transport with a short walk from the bus stop/train station to the service. We are also currently looking for drivers.
In return for your dedicated service you can expect a competitive rate of pay of £12.75 per hour with additional pay on some of the bank holidays, enhanced pay when you leave to have a baby (maternal, paternal or adoption), Employee Assistance programme with free legal support and counselling, support with gaining further qualifications in Social Care (levels 3 and 5), career progression opportunities, financial awards for successful recruitment referrals and an inclusive, friendly and supportive environment for you to grow and thrive. Active Prospects has an amazing induction programme which ensures that all our employees receive classroom and on‑the‑job training and support to prepare them within their new roles.
