Leicester, United Kingdom MacIntyre Full time

**Why not start a rewarding new career supporting adults who have a learning disability to live life to the full? No experience necessary: we'll train you.**

We are a small cluster of three individual residential care homes providing the best support to six people who have a learning disability. They are aged between 24-56. Your role will be to support these fabulous individuals to achieve their goals to live as independently as possible, to maintain their family relationships and to explore new exciting opportunities.

Are you fit and active?
Could you keep up with a vibrant young man who loves to play football, trampoline and walk across fields all for hours at a time. Could you be the person who greets him in the morning and supports him to prepare for his day whilst listening to his favourite music, which quite often is 90's.

Let's meet Sarah She likes to look fashionably coordinated with attention to detail. Someone with nail painting and hair accessorising skills will definitely be her bestie. She is autistic and requires patience, understanding and excellent communication skills from her staff. Sarah can't walk far, so a driving licence is essential for her to experience a full range of activities outside of her home.

You will be joining an established team who support 4 other individuals. Excellent training is provided and the use of robust PBS plans help to maintain a harmonious home.
Another nice feeling is handing over your Blue Light discount card and making savings at the checkout. This is just one of the many ways we like to reward our employees.

**You must be a driver with a manual licence with a full clean driving licence and be prepared to drive adapted cars.**
