Optalis is the Adult Social Care delivery partner on behalf of Wokingham Borough Council and the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead Council. Optalis is owned and funded by the two councils - it is not a private provider or an employment agency.

**Support Worker** **- Shaw Court SL4**
**Full-Time - £22,572.70 / £11.70 per hour**

Our teams provide individualised care and support for people with learning disabilities, autistic people and people with physical disabilities living in their community. At Shaw Court, home to 11 **male** customers in Old Windsor, we recognise that each person has unique interests, needs and preferences. We support customers to be as self-sufficient as possible and work closely with them and their support networks to explore options to help them reach their goals.

We are recruiting for a **full-time** support worker to cover a mix of mornings, afternoons and long days - this will include alternate weekends.

Experience in social care would be beneficial but is not necessary as full training is provided. Your role will be to support our customers in their day-to-day lives and could include assistance with personal care, managing medication, shopping and meal preparation, as well as supporting with emotional and physical wellbeing. We also provide support with life skills such as improving confidence, managing finances and engaging the local community to maintain important relationships.

Working for Optalis you will also receive a range of benefits, including:

- A Perkbox rewards package offering discounts on cinema, shopping, health, travel and insurance.
- 25 days annual leave (pro rata) increasing annually to a maximum of 30 days, as well as 8 bank holidays and an extra day off for your birthday.
- An additional health and wellbeing day.
- A comprehensive paid training and development programme.
- Excellent career progression opportunities and support.
- As a valued and integral member of the team you will have a voice in the service and forums to be heard and make a difference
- STAR awards - a reward scheme which recognises staff who have gone the extra mile.
- A generous pension scheme.

Optalis is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our staff and customers. All successful applicants will be required to undertake a DBS check and will need to provide proof of their right to work in the UK.
