We are currently seeking to appoint a Support Worker to join our dynamic and forward-thinking team.
The role involves supporting citizens in their own/familiar settings in the community with everyday living skills/activities to enable them to engage in their community and live independently. No two days are the same; you will hold a caseload of people to support.

The role involves travelling within the Coventry area.
Note: Our positions are open to all applicants; however, we are unable to offer visa sponsorship. All applicants must have the Right to Work in the UK. If on a limited visa, a minimum of two years remaining is required.
This post is exempt under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act. Appointment is conditional upon a satisfactory police records check via the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
