Totnes, United Kingdom Lifeworks Charity Limited Full time

Senior Support Worker - Nights (Learning Disabilities)

Shinners Bridge, Dartington, Devon

Hours: Full-Time or Part-Time Nights

Salary scale: £10.86 - £11.20 per hour (plus an additional night premium of £2.15 per hour)

Contract: Permanent

The Role

There is no such thing as a ‘typical’ Support Worker. Staff come from lots of different backgrounds, people with little or no experience but want a job that involves helping people, those who want a change of career, as well as experienced Support Workers.

The one thing that links all of them together is their desire to work with young people with learning disabilities, make their lives better and help them to learn something new or take a further step towards independence.

Support Workers certainly don’t see what they do as ‘just another job’.

No two days will be the same as you will get involved in a variety of different tasks and activities whilst helping the young people to learn the skills they need to live the life they choose.

About You

Ideally, you will have previous experience in this sector and must hold a Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare (or equivalent).

In return the organisation will support you in making care work your career, offering you an extensive induction on commencement of employment and an amazing array of training opportunities and will also work with you on your own individual development plan to help you to progress your career.

- 28 days’ annual leave (including bank holidays), increasing with service
