We are here to support the residents as individuals and enable them to safely live the lives that they choose, both at home and in the community.

- Provide them with the agreed necessary support to maximise their independence and to develop social and life skills.
- Work through a 6-month probation to allow you to develop your skills with the support of your line manager.

- Have strong communication skills with the ability to communicate effectively with team members, the people we support and a range of stakeholders.
- Have a caring manner and a tolerant nature, have some experience within the sector and be willing to work with us in the training that your job role requires.
- Hold a full clean driving licence.
- NVQ 2 in Health & Social Care preferable, or willing to train to an equivalent standard.
- An understanding of person-centred planning.
- Will promote choice and positive risk taking to the people we support.

At Milestones Trust we recognise that without the hard work, commitment and passion of our staff, we wouldn’t be the charity that we are today. In return, we are committed to rewarding you with a competitive pay and benefits package including:

- 30 days annual leave entitlement
- Company pension scheme, to help grow your retirement pot
- Learning and development opportunities to help you to build your career, including a comprehensive induction programme, and the opportunity to undertake further qualifications
- Health Cash Plan on completion of probation giving you access to a minimum of £695 cash back for health treatments e.g. dental, therapies, optical, maternity/paternity, NHS prescriptions etc.
- Generous Occupational Maternity/Paternity pay
- Get paid when you want - access your money as you earn it and request your earnings before payday using Dayforce Wallet
- Access to an Employee Discount Platform from day one, with discounts and cashback for hundreds of retailers
