We currently have an exciting opportunity to join the KEaH Enablement Team. With an office based at The Civic Centre, Gravesend and an expectation to deliver in Dartford, Swanley, Gravesend and surrounding areas.

The Kent Enablement at Home service is one of the leaders in its field. With excellent work benefits and one of the most comprehensive training programmes we believe in investing in both our staff as well as the residents of Kent Enablement is all about taking an individual on a journey to independence or reducing the long-term care needs. This would be though planned support with aspects of daily living including personal care, whilst working for and alongside a structured team to include the Enablement Locality Organiser, Enablement Supervisors, Social Workers, Occupational Therapists and various multi agency partners in KCC and health.

**To succeed in this role, we are looking for someone who has**:

- Skills to empower the people on our service to support them to reach their personal goals and maximise their independence

- Basic knowledge and understanding of computer-based systems
- Willingness to learn and a proactive approach to their own development

**In return we can offer you**:

- Enhancements for evening and weekend working and Bank Holidays
- Uniform, Phone and PPE all provided
- Contracted Guaranteed Hours
- Paid by shift not by call
- Travel time paid and Mileage paid at 45p per mile

- Development opportunities through succession planning to move into other roles (whole of KCC)
- KCC standard benefits as outlined in the Blue Book.

We value different skill sets and recognise that career paths are fluid. Whether you aim to manage your own team of people or really hone your specialist skills and become an expert in your area, the opportunity to follow your career goals is available at Kent County Council.

The ability to travel across a wide geographical area in a timely and flexible manner at various times of the day (during shift hours). You should note that public transport is rarely a viable option as some rural areas of Kent often have limited public transport.

This post is considered by KCC to be a customer-facing position. The Council therefore has a statutory duty under Part 7 of the Immigration Act (2016) to ensure that post holders have a command of spoken English/Welsh sufficient for the effective performance of the job requirements. The appropriate standards are set out in the Job Description/Person Specification.
