Support Worker Flexible Hours

1 week ago

Braintree, United Kingdom MacIntyre Charity Full time

**Looking for a worthwhile job with the hours that work for you ?**

Join us as a Relief Support Worker, we provide support 24 hours a day seven days per week so we can probably offer the hours that suit you.

**How Relief hours work**

It's a bit like a zero hour contract but without the bad bits.
- You don't have to work when it's not convenient for you.
- Receive the same training towards professional qualifications as permanent staff.
- We offer these contracts not because it suits us but because it suits you.
- Job security and career development

The Relief (Bank) post supports the permanent rota staff by completing shifts that are vacant due to annual leave, training and other staff absences. As such, hours are non-specific but your manager will endeavour to balance the needs of the service against your own work/life balance as appropriately as possible.

We normally plan the rotas one month in advance, but additional opportunities also come up due to unexpected staff absences.

**So what would you be doing**

Join our small, friendly teams in Tiptree and Braintree as a full-time or relief support worker. You will support four people, between the ages of 50 - 75, with learning disabilities as they enjoy a wide range of interests and activities including shopping, summer BBQ's and listening to music from the 70's and 80's.

Music and film play a huge role in our day-to-day routines. We regularly hold film and dance clubs which are a great opportunity to have some fun and let our hair down

Michael* is a massive fan of Star Wars and has a collection of memorabilia and posters which he likes to show off and enthuse over. Could you share his love for film and chat about some of your favourite movies?

**About you**

Experience isn’t always necessary. If you have the right attitude, good customer service skills, share our values and are willing to learn, you’re likely to be a great fit. We are looking for people who celebrate differences, and we strive to make all our staff feel included, valued and respected.

Being a driver with a manual license would be preferred, but not essential.

**About us**

MacIntyre is a national charity which supports over 1,200 people with a learning disability and/or autism.

We were founded in 1966 by the visionary parent of a child with disabilities and have been growing steadily ever since. We celebrate and develop everyone’s unique gifts, talents and contributions.

**Training and Development**

At Macintyre we fully support your training and development. We know it can be daunting to start a new job, and not everyone learns the same way, so throughout your probation we will provide you with a mixture of eLearning, face-to-face training and mentoring support whilst on the job.

But it doesn't stop there - throughout your career with us you will have access to our own dedicated in house Learning and Development team, Quality Specialists and HR Teams. These teams, along with your Manager, will provide you with opportunities to learn and develop professionally as well as enabling and supporting you to achieve professional qualifications and career progression opportunities - all free of charge.

**Pay and Rewards**

We provide a range of benefits to reward and thank our staff which includes:

- Six weeks' annual leave including statutory public holidays
- Workplace Pension scheme - MacIntyre will contribute 3% of your salary to all eligible employees
- MacIntyre Staff Savings Scheme
- Employee Assistance Plan (EAP) to support your health and wellbeing
- Health Cash Plan which provides money back on core health treatments such as: optical, dental, physiotherapy, chiropody (at reduced cost)
