Flexible work. Real relationships. No experience needed. Looking for flexible work that fits around your life, whilst also making a genuine difference? Eleanor lives in her own home in Westoning with six other people. She doesn t use words to communicate, but she has a big personality and knows exactly how to show you what makes her happy. We re looking for caring, creative, and bubbly female Support Workers to join us on a relief (bank) basis, who will genuinely take the time to really get to know Eleanor. *Eleanor loves: A relaxed, happy atmosphere Singing (especially Elvis Presley!) Turning everyday mundane routines into heart-sing moments She also enjoys visiting MacIntyre's Learning Centre in Ampthill, seeing friends, getting out to the park and relaxing with her favourite TV shows. A manual driving licence is essential - not to rush around, but to help unlock opportunities and choice. About the Role Relief (bank) hours to suit your availability Pick and choose from a variety of shifts including weekdays, weekends, Bank Holidays and sleep-ins Supporting seven people to live a life that makes sense to them No experience in social care? That s okay. If you bring patience, warmth and a good sense of humour, we ll support you to learn the rest. Could you make a difference in Eleanor s life and enjoy a role full of laughter along the way? * Names changed for privacy IND About you Experience isn t necessary. If you share our values, are warm, friendly and willing to learn, you re likely to be a great fit. We re looking for people who celebrate differences, and we strive to make all our staff feel included, valued and respected. You must be a driver with a manual licence, as you will be driving service vehicles. You must be comfortable supporting with medication, personal hygiene, and toileting.
