At Active Care in the Home, we're proud to be part of one of the UK's leading providers of complex care and right now, we're looking for a dedicated male Support Worker to join our client's well-established support team.

Meet Our Client

I'm a 33-year-old guy living with a spinal cord injury. I'm really into cars and computers especially the technical side of things. I love music, movies, and a good conversation, whether that's a deep chat or a laugh and a bit of banter!

I have an easy-going routine and a fantastic team who know me well they'll support you as you settle in. I enjoy getting out for drives, exploring new places with great views, and spending time with my collection of remote-controlled cars.

I'm looking for someone reliable, positive, and confident behind the wheel someone who shares my interests and can help me live life my way.

The Role

As Support Worker, you'll play a key role in providing high-quality, person-centred care in our client's own home.

Every day is different from supporting with personal care, medication, and clinical tasks, to joining our client on trips out in the community.

In this role, you'll support one individual with complex needs, working regular weekly shifts to build a consistent, trusted care team. While hours are usually stable, the position is offered on a zero-hours contract as care packages can change.

Working Hours

• Full-time and part-time options available
• Mix of days (8am8pm) and wake nights (8pm8am) with occasional sleep-ins
• Flexibility is key to supporting the client's lifestyle

What We're Looking For

• A compassionate, reliable, and proactive individual
• Good sense of humour
• Confident driver (ideal you'll be driving the client's vehicle)
• Experience in care; spinal cord injury knowledge is a plus but not essential
• Great communication and teamwork skills
• Great at being organised and on time
• Passion for empowering others to live independently

What You'll Get in Return

• up to £13.00 per hour (depending on experience and qualifications)
• NEST pension
• Ongoing clinical and professional development support
• Active Awards Programme recognising and celebrating your success
