Support Worker

About the Role

You will become part of a fun, friendly team who support five individuals with learning and physical disabilities to live in their own shared home.

As a Support Practitioner, you will provide invaluable support with all aspects of their daily living, including cooking, cleaning, finances, medication and personal care.

You will also be enthusiastic and creative in supporting with their hobbies and interests, which include arts & crafts, walking and going to various social events and activities.

The people we support enjoy going swimming, so we will need you to feel confident in the pool.

About You

You don't need experience to start your career with us; we recruit on values and we'll give you all the training you'll need if you're successful.

We'll even fund your SVQ (SCQF level 6/7) qualification and yearly SSSC registration fees too.

However, for this opportunity, we will need you to have a driving license and access to your own vehicle due to the rural location of our service.

What we will need you to bring:

• A caring and compassionate attitude
• The ability to work well in a team
• Confidence to go in the water as swimming is a regular activity
• Good communication and organisational skills
• A positive attitude with a willingness to learn
• Confidence in the use of computers
• The ability to cook (baking would be a bonus too)
• A full driving license and access to your own vehicle

If you're successful in joining our team, we will need you to register with the SSSC within 3 months of starting your employment with us.

Cornerstone welcomes applications from all sections of the community and actively seeks to increase the diversity of our workforce.
