If you answered yes to all the questions above, then read on...

Persona are offering an exciting opportunity for an apprentice support worker to join our Short Stay service. The prime aim of the short stay unit is to support the people who use our service to achieve their goals and wishes. We are committed to providing a person-centered approach in all aspects of care while enabling people to make their own choices in how they want to live their best life on a day to day basis.

About you

You will be a flexible person with a can-do attitude, who also shares our values. You will have an ability to develop positive relationships with people and be passionate in supporting people to reach their full potential.

You will be at least 16 years of age, and not already undertaking a full time qualification.

The purpose of an apprenticeship is to learn whilst on the job, so this is a great opportunity for someone looking to start a career in adult social care.

You don’t need any previous qualifications or social care experience, but you will be someone who:

- has a passion for learning
- enjoys a challenge
- is willing to work as part of a team
- is committed, motivated and hardworking

As well as supporting you to achieve a Level 2 Health and Social Care Qualification, Persona will also enable you to gain knowledge and skills in:

- enablement
- customer service and communication
- IT skills
- team working skills

No one will meet every single desired qualification. If your experience looks a little different from what we're saying and you think you can bring value to the role, we'd love to learn more about you

About the role

As an apprentice support worker you will be responsible for supporting adults who use the service either on a one to one basis or in groups, and will work closely with all members of the team to ensure that appropriate support is provided to all people using the Short Stay service and that the associated paperwork is completed accurately.

Further information about the role can be found in the** **job description**.

In return for your contribution we will support you throughout your career
- We provide a wide range of **employee benefits**, career development and lifestyle support services to ensure that you too feel supported, fulfilled and valued from day one of your employment with us.

Persona is committed to being an inclusive employer and recognises the value of having a diverse workforce that reflects the communities we serve.

Where possible, we will support employees to work flexibly or with adjustments, so that they can perform to their best ability. We are committed to providing a working environment where all employees are treated with dignity and respect, and where individual skills and life experiences are valued.

Please note

Satisfactory disclosure at the appropriate level under the Disclosure and Barring Service is required prior to appointment.

If this sounds like the role for you:
Please

If you are successful at the first stage you will be invited for a look around the centre, where you will have an opportunity to ask any questions that you may have at this stage.

**Interviews for all shortlisted applicants will be held at Elmhurst Short Stay on Wednesday 10th July.**

**Deadline for registering your interest is end of the day on Wednesday 3rd July.**

**Please note we are not currently in a position to offer sponsorship to workers from outside of the UK.
