Residential Support Worker

2 weeks ago


South Ayrshire Council, United Kingdom Aspris Full time
Welcome to Aspris

At Aspris, we strongly believe that every young individual deserves the best opportunities to grow, develop, and receive the necessary support to pave the way for a bright future. Our Residential Support Workers play a fundamental role in helping us bring this vision to life.

Job Overview

As a Residential Support Worker, your primary responsibilities include providing emotional assistance to our youth and assisting them with day-to-day tasks like personal hygiene, getting dressed, and facilitating their daily routines. During weekend shifts, you won't spend much time at the home as the real fun happens outside, at theme parks, bowling alleys, cinemas, and zoos. Work becomes so enjoyable that you might even forget you're on duty.

While there will be enjoyable moments, there will also be challenges since our homes cater to young individuals with autism, learning disabilities, and various social and emotional needs. However, our Residential Support Workers often find that the strong bonds and lasting memories they create with the youth make up for any difficulties. Witnessing a young person overcome obstacles and progress is incredibly rewarding for them.

Note: Candidates for this position MUST possess a full UK driving license due to the home's location.

Who We're Seeking

We are searching for individuals who are compassionate, friendly, and genuinely caring, with a deep desire to provide our youth with the best possible opportunities for success.

If you are someone who:

  • Thrives in a team environment
  • Exhibits resilience, patience, and empathy
  • Has a talent for bringing smiles to people's faces
  • Is always available to lend a listening ear
  • Enjoys activities like movie nights, baking, or playing Xbox games

This role could be the perfect fit for you. No prior experience working with children is required as we offer full support, training, and fully funded qualifications to help you build a fulfilling career that you can take pride in.

Our homes provide a unique community-based learning and living environment to support some of the most vulnerable children and young individuals in the region. The team helps children and youth between 8 and 18 years old integrate fully into the local community and prepares them for a successful transition beyond Aspris Scotland.

Benefits

Join us in a supportive and collaborative work setting where you can thrive in your career and find immense satisfaction in helping those in need. We offer flexible working hours that can accommodate your schedule.

In addition, you'll enjoy a variety of benefits, including:

  • Healthcare cash plan, wellbeing support, and loans
  • Access to an exclusive rewards platform
  • Discounts in-store and online through Blue Light Card
  • Participation in the cycle to work scheme and gym membership
  • Opportunities to earn bonuses by referring friends
  • Access to learning and development programs
  • Flexible working hours tailored to your lifestyle

Discover more about these benefits in our comprehensive guide to benefits and pensions.

If you are excited to become part of an organization that prioritizes children's well-being and values its employees, we are eager to hear from you.
