Two gentlemen and three ladies who Dimensions support at their home in Frimley are looking for new Support Workers to join their team, enabling them to live independent lives.
The individuals we support, aged in their 50s-60s with learning disabilities, are outgoing. They would be pleased to meet full-time Support Workers interested in activities such as:
1. Helping them travel to and from day services
2. Going to the pub for lunch every Friday
3. Shopping trips for clothes and room decorations
4. Assisting with puzzles and quizzes
5. Drawing activities
6. Taking care of the house cat
Not all individuals communicate verbally; some use alternative methods. Don’t worry if you haven’t communicated this way before—Dimensions provides comprehensive training for all Support Workers.
The role involves a mix of early (7:30-15:00) and late (14:30-22:00) shifts, with one sleep-in shift per week required. Dimensions offers a pay rate of £11.89 per hour, with sleep-in shifts paid at an allowance of £45 per shift.
Since the individuals supported have access to a vehicle, holding a full UK/EU driving license is desirable.
Support Workers may also assist with finances, meal preparation, and personal care.
Benefits for Support Workers include:
* 30 days annual leave pro rata, with options to buy or sell leave
* £200 bonus for referring a successfully employed friend
* Paid training and funded courses for career development
* Bike to Work scheme and discounts on meals, shopping, entertainment, gym memberships, and mobile tariffs
* Being part of a values-driven organization that prioritizes people with learning disabilities and their families
* Support for colleagues' well-being and staff engagement
* Recognition by the Great Places to Work program for multiple years
Additional information:
* Applications are reviewed promptly; interviews will continue until positions are filled
* An enhanced DBS check is required, with costs covered by Dimensions
* We welcome applications from all eligible to work in the UK and value diversity
* As disability confident leaders, we guarantee interviews for disabled applicants meeting minimum criteria
