About the role:


We are looking for enthusiastic and committed Support Workers to provide high-quality care and support services to people with learning disabilities in Enfield.

You will support people with their day to day life, to learn new skills and develop confidence and independence and have a good quality of life.

The duties are varied and no two days will be the same. The people you will support are individuals and they all deserve to be treated as such.

However, duties may include supporting with personal care needs, empowering people to take part in a wide range of special interests and activities that support people's health and wellbeing such as arts and crafts, drama, musical evenings, enabling people to be involved in household tasks, shopping trips, cooking, as well as supporting people on social occasions.


About you:
Do you have the enthusiasm and positivity to actively support people to achieve their outcomes supporting them to live a good and meaningful life?


One day you could be supporting a person who has dementia to reminisce through music utilising your skills of patience, empathy, and creativity.

The next day may bring an exciting outdoor activity to help a person access the community, meet others and get fit through football, bike riding, gardening or bowling.


Can you see yourself supporting a visually impaired person to develop an awareness of different times of the day using an Alexa enabling them to have more control over their day? Another day you could be helping people cook healthy meals from scratch helping them to succeed with their goals to develop cooking skills.

No two days are the same.

Skills, values and expertise you will need:
*Excellent team player
*Experience in supported living or willingness to learn
*Having the ability to build positive relationships with people we support and their families
*Being creative and empowering in your support practise
*Good communication skills
*Having the resilience for supporting people through bad days as well the good

The people supported need staff who are:
*Patient, understanding and caring
*Vibrant, enthusiastic and fun
*Energetic, flexible and have a positive "can do" attitude at all times
*Willing and able to actively support involvement in a wide range of community and social activities
*Able to communicate with different people using a variety of approaches
*Able to follow guidelines to help achieve a consistent approach

All posts will involve working evenings, weekends and bank holidays.

You will be provided with comprehensive training and be supported every step of the way to develop your career with us.


The charity supports people who are known to present behaviours of concern by using the Positive Behaviour support model because PBS puts the person first.

Existing knowledge/experience in following the PBS approach would be beneficial but not essential as you will be provided with extensive training.

A shared value of understanding and supporting a person's behaviour and finding ways to work with them to improve this is essential.


Benefits:

As well as knowing what you do makes a difference in people's lives every day, you will also receive a great benefits package:
*Flexible working hours that will give you the work-life balance that is right for you
*Up to 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays (pro rata for part-time)
*Computing Scheme
*Credit Union Scheme
*Cycle-to-Work Scheme
*Death in Service Benefit
*Health Assured - Employee Assistance Programme
*Blue Light Card
*Eyecare Vouchers
*Flu Jab Reimbursement
*Long Service Awards
*Pension Scheme
*Purchase Additional Annual Leave
*Refer-a-Friend Scheme
*Retirements
*Loans (including season tickets and parking permit loans)
