Milton Keynes, United Kingdom MacIntyre Full time

**Looking for a busy and meaningful role in which you can make a difference? Help us to empower people with learning disabilities at our established coffee shop in Great Holm, Milton Keynes. This is a full-time position (37.5 hours per week.)**

Your support will help a wonderful group of adults to gain skills involved with hospitality, customer care, food preparation, baking, money management and a number of other duties involved with running a popular shop and catering department. As well as working in the coffee shop, you will also be supporting people out and about to go shopping and serve at community events. We also support local organisations like The Parks Trust and Bucks Fire and Rescue Service with catering, including silver service events and cupcake orders.

This varied role will require you to wear many hats, with no two days being the same - but one constant will be the excellent support you provide to people with learning disabilities to encourage their independence and confidence.

This is a wonderful opportunity for you to combine your love of hospitality with a genuine passion to make a real difference to someone's life along the way.

**About you**

Customer service and catering experience would be ideal, however this is by no means essential. Our coffee shop is very popular, and as a result this is a physically demanding role.

You will enjoy a varied, flexible working pattern. This is a shift-based role supporting a rota that includes weekends and evenings.

While you are working to encourage people's development, MacIntyre will also commit to supporting you to become a confident and successful support worker. This means that, whatever your working background, you will receive training to ensure we can deliver the best possible support.

You **must** hold a UK man**ual driving licence** in order to drive the bakery van.

**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)
- MacIntyre Sick Pay (qualifying period)
- Life assurance scheme offering valuable benefits to your dependents
- MacIntyre Rewards Scheme which recognises and rewards staff
- MacIntyre Perks which offers up to 6% discount off leading retailers including Tesco, Curry/PC World, Costa and many more
- Access to the Blue Light Card which offers thousands of amazing discounts online and on the high street for emergency and social care staff. Enhanced DBS Certificate (cost paid by MacIntyre)

**How to apply**
