  • Work collaboratively with individuals to achieve their own personal outcomes in all aspects of their daily lives.
  • Use an outcomes-focused approach to ensure that support is tailored to each individual's needs.
What You'll Need

No previous working experience is necessary, as full training will be provided. However, we do require that you possess the following skills and qualities:

  • A passion for helping vulnerable people enjoy as much fulfilment as they can and feel included in their community.
  • Compassion, care, and inclusiveness are essential parts of your personality.
Benefits

As a Relief Support Practitioner, you will benefit from:

  • A competitive hourly rate of £19.
  • The opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of adults with autism.
  • Full training and support to help you develop your skills and confidence.
  • The flexibility to choose when you work, allowing you to fit your schedule around your existing commitments.
Why Choose Us?

At Turning Point Scotland, we operate a List of Approved Relief Workers who may be contacted by services when there is a need to engage additional workers. As a Relief Worker, you will be well-placed to fit your work around your existing commitments and will be under no pressure or obligation to accept work if it does not suit you.
