The Specialised Supported Living Service is passionate about supporting adults with learning disabilities, who put the people we support first. We are seeking to recruit great support workers. Our main priority for this role is to find people with the right values, behaviours, and attitudes - could that be you?

**Our values are**:
We are Caring. We treat everyone with respect and kindness.

We have Integrity. When we promise something, we don’t let people down.

We keep it simple. We make it easy for the people we serve to achieve their goals.

If you do share our values, we want you

The duties are varied, and no two days are the same. The people we support are individuals and deserve to be treated as such. As a general guide duties include support with personal care such as bathing, and domestic tasks such as cooking and cleaning as well as support with leisure activities. Most importantly we want you to make a difference to people’s lives, by empowering people to lead fulfilled lives.

The Specialised Supported Living Service supports adults in sixteen locations across Leeds. We support people with varying degrees of learning disabilities including profound multiple disabilities and people who use challenging behaviour to communicate. We believe that nobody is too disabled to enjoy the benefits of supported living. Full training will be given including postural management and positive behaviour support.

The Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (LYPFT) is the main provider of Mental Health and Learning Disability services in Leeds. We also provide specialist inpatient services in York and some highly specialised services across the country. As a teaching trust with strong links to local universities, we are a centre of excellence for teaching, research and development.

There are many benefits of working for LYPFT including fantastic employee wellbeing support, 27 - 33 days annual leave, flexible working and remote working arrangements, the NHS Pension Scheme, coaching, support and opportunities for career development and training and education support alongside a range of exclusive discounts and payment schemes including for cars, extra leave days and more NHS Discount Offers.

We also have an incredible bank department, offering variety of roles in nursing, allied health professions, healthcare support worker and administration clerical. Permanent employees are automatically added to bank.

Applicants should be aware that for any individual who requires a visa to work in the UK, the Trust provides sponsorship for registered healthcare practitioner roles only. This is an essential requirement of the role, and the Trust is unable to offer you a role if you are unable to meet Trust requirements for sponsorship and Home Office requirements for a visa.

This post requires shift work as we provide support over a 24/7 basis. You must be able to work a variety of shifts including nightshifts, weekends, and public holidays.

All applicants will hold a L2 or Level 3 Diploma / NVQ in healthcare, or possess skills, knowledge, and experience to an equivalent level. Where the applicant does not possess the actual qualification, the Trust requires all applicants to commit to beginning this (or a Level 3 qualification) within 6 months of commencing in post unless extenuating circumstances exist.

In return for your skills and commitment you will receive
- A competitive progressive salary - £22,816- £24,336 pa / £11.70 - £12.48 per hour

Enhancements for unsocial hours worked and NHS discount schemes
