Benefits: Along with a host of benefits - from discounted shopping, 33 days annual leave (pro rata) increasing after 5 years, competitive rates of pay, bank holiday enhancement, additional hours enhancement (after 37 hours), refer a friend scheme, flexible working, paid DBS extensive paid induction, recognition and reward scheme

We are looking for support workers to work across our Manchester sites in Northenden and Northern Moor, Manchester M22 and M23.
