Senior Support Worker – Barrhead Full Time – 39 Hours per Week | £26,080 per annum 24/7 Supported Living Service | Mixed Support & Admin Role Service Based (Not Office-Based) | Unique Single-Service Leadership Role Are you an experienced support worker ready to take the next step in your career? Do you want a meaningful role where you can make a real difference every day? This is not your typical senior support worker position—this is your chance to be part of something truly special. About the Role We’re looking for a compassionate and motivated Senior Support Worker to join our dedicated team in Barrhead, working solely within a 24-hour service focusing on the support of one man. This service is part of Renfrewshire Supported Living Initiative (RSLI) and is fully funded to provide tailored, person-centred care. You’ll work 39 hours per week in a balanced role: around 50% providing direct support (including sleepovers) and 50% carrying out administrative and leadership duties. Unlike many senior roles, your focus won’t be spread across multiple services—you’ll be fully dedicated to this one individual and his established team, offering real continuity, connection, and purpose. About the Man We Support The man you’ll support is 52 and full of personality—he loves everything to do with Christmas, is a huge fan of Marvel movies, listens to music every day, and never misses a chance to enjoy some good old WWF wrestling. He has a learning disability and requires full support with all aspects of daily living, including personal care, meal preparation, and household tasks. He lives in his own home in Barrhead, and is supported 24/7 by a stable, experienced team. People find it easy to build a relationship with him—he’s at the heart of everything we do, and this role is a unique opportunity to be a consistent part of his life. Why This Role is Unique This isn’t a service-wide role—it’s fully focused on one home, one person, and one team. You’ll be based primarily at the service, supporting the team directly from within, not from a separate office (though our Abbeymill base is always available when needed). Your leadership will be visible, hands-on, and truly impactful. You’ll oversee: Day-to-day running of the service Staff rotas and supervision Administrative duties and regulatory compliance Mentorship, coaching, and team development High-quality, person-centred care delivery What We’re Looking For SVQ Level 3 in Health & Social Care (or equivalent) PDA in Supervision or Management (or willingness to work towards it) Previous experience in a senior or leadership role in social care A genuine passion for improving lives and building relationships What You’ll Get in Return At Quarriers, we value our staff and offer a fantastic benefits package, including: 29 days annual leave 4 public holidays (rising to 34 4 after 5 years) Family-friendly policies Free and confidential Employee Assistance Programme Health Cash Plan (HSF) & free access to physiotherapy and occupational health services Access to Concerts for Carers Pension scheme Ongoing professional development and support Successful applicants will be required to register with the SSSC within three months of their start date. Ready to step into a role where you can lead with heart and purpose? Apply today and make a lasting difference in someone’s life—and your own.
