Support worker

Weymouth
ILS Case Management
Support worker
Posted: 9 July
Offer description

Hi, I’m Dom – and I’m looking for a new Support Worker to join my team in Weymouth!

I was born in and live with Cerebral Palsy, but that doesn’t stop me from enjoying life. I’ve got a great sense of humour (if I do say so myself), I’m easy-going, and I love spending time with my family. I enjoy darts and snooker, working on my computer, and having my own space at home. I also volunteer at a local charity shop, which I really enjoy.

I’m looking for someone who can support me both at home and out in the community. You’ll be helping me with personal care, therapy exercises, and making sure I stay safe when we’re out and about. I use a powered wheelchair and have some limited movement, so I need someone who’s calm, proactive, and ready to get stuck in – especially if you like swimming, because that’s one of my favourite ways to stay active! You will need to like swimming and be able to drive my Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle.

The Role

1. Location: Weymouth
2. Hours: Average of Approximately 30 hours a week based on a 4-week rolling rota
3. Pay:
4. Weekdays: £15.00 per hour
5. Weekends: £16.00 per hour
6. Sleeping Nights: National Living Wage currently £12.21 per hour
7. Driver? Yes, please – you’ll need to drive my wheelchair-adapted vehicle (automatic) and sometimes use your own car for training or work purposes.
8. Accommodation while on duty: You’ll have your own bedroom and bathroom upstairs.

9. Has experience supporting adults with CP (essential)

13. Will support me to eat healthily and look after myself.

What You’ll Get

14. Ongoing training and support (including The Care Certificate)
15. 5.6 weeks pro rata annual leave
16. Pension (subject to qualifying status)
17. Free DBS check
18. Induction and regular supervision
19. Support from my Team Leader, Case Manager and HR team

You’d Be Perfect for This Role If You:

20. Are kind, patient, and full of energy
21. Work well with families and professionals to provide consistent, compassionate care
22. Are happy to be part of a close-knit team that truly cares

28. Help me grow in confidence and independence

Are Quality Focussed

29. Take pride in delivering high standards of care
30. Follow therapy programmes carefully and are open to learning
31. Are observant, detail-oriented, and committed to doing your best

Are Positive

32. Bring a can-do attitude and a sense of fun
33. Focus on what I can do and help me find solutions
34. Celebrate progress and help me live life to the fullest

Interviews & Start Date

35. Interviews will be held via video call as applications come in
36. Start date: ASAP (subject to pre-employment checks)

If you think you’d be a good fit and want to make a real difference in someone’s life, I’d welcome your application. Come and be part of a team that helps me live life to the fullest.
