Shrewsbury, United Kingdom MacIntyre 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**

**Intrigued to know more?**

Rebekah, Amelia and Jayde are all in their twenties and like to have lots of fun. It's a busy household with lots going on, so the days fly by with no two the same.

A day shift might involve supporting the 3 lovely girls to attend their regular riding session and accompanying them to the local farm.

They lead active lifestyles so sometimes its hard to keep up Jayde loves going out to the the cinema or go swimming. Where as Rebekah and Amelia have dance classes that they attend every week. Favourite activities include visits to the gym, bowling and go to the sports village.

It's very important that you support them to maintain regular contact with their families. You will help with day to day household duties like cleaning, shopping & cooking and with a bit of encouragement Rebekah Jayde and Amelia will get involved. They do love making their own pizzas with a variety of toppings. (Wouldn't that be fun?)

So, if you think you can make a difference in their lives or the other way round, then do apply** We are offering both full-time and part-time roles.**
- **_If you’re not familiar with it, for a sleep-in shift, you sleep at the person’s home overnight in the spare room, ready to wake up and provide support if someone is restless. In the Shropshire area, we pay £60 per sleep-in._**
- Names changed to protect privacy_

**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.

Although it would be desirable for you to hold a full UK driving licence, this is not an essential job requirement.
