Personal Assistants (Support Workers) have the most important role within ENABLE Scotland by making a positive difference every day to the lives of the people we support. No two days are the same for our Personal Assistants but what we can guarantee is that you will be supporting someone with a learning disability to achieve their goals and outcomes - whatever they may be

Each person we support has different support needs, so your support worker role may include assisting them with various aspects of personal care, moving and handling or positive behavioural support whilst expanding their social networks and connections.

ENABLE Scotland creates a bespoke team around every individual we support, and our team of Personal Assistants work collaboratively to ensure the safety, wellbeing and aspirations of the people we support are met.

The Best in _You_ Brings Out the Best in _Me_

The people we support have many varied interests and hobbies and have many of the same dreams and aspirations as we do; they just too often do not get the opportunity to experience these same opportunities. So whatever your interests are; be it sewing, baking, having a cup of tea and chat to horse riding, swimming or hill-walking, we want to hear from you

A career with ENABLE Scotland is as rewarding as it is diverse, Personal Assistants at _their_ **best** have the potential to truly bring out _the_ **best** in the people we support.

ENABLE Scotland needs **_you_** and **_your_** values to help us create an equal society for every person who has a learning disability.

You don’t need experience in care to start your social care career with ENABLE Scotland. We recruit people based on their values and transferrable skills. Wherever your journey has taken you up until now, join us, and together we will forge a new path in what could potentially be the most rewarding role you have ever had 

Successful applicants will be able to demonstrate the following:

- The ability to adapt your communication style in order to develop successful and enjoyable relationships with the people we support.
- The commitment to work with individuals through their personal support plans to ensure people achieve their goals and outcomes and celebrate their successes.
- A positive and flexible outlook to your work, and be able to work on your own and as part of a team.
