About Supporting Someone with Learning Disabilities
We're Dimensions, a not-for-profit charitable society and housing association supporting people with learning disabilities, autism, and complex needs. Our top priority is finding individuals whose values, behaviours, and attitudes align with our own.
Support Worker Job Role
We're hiring a part-time Support Worker to assist a gentleman in his 30s living independently in supported housing. You'll be working independently to provide one-on-one, person-centred support, transitioning from "caring for" to "working with" to promote his independence.
Responsibilities
Every day will be different, offering variety as you assist this gentleman with:
- Household Tasks: Helping, encouraging, and teaching him to do housework, including cleaning and laundry.
- Personal Care: Supporting him with personal care needs, such as dressing and showering
- Medication: Assisting with medication management.
- Shopping and Meals: Helping him shop for clothes and food, and preparing meals as needed.
- Financial Management: Supporting him in managing his own money.
You'll also support with things that are important to him, like visiting the railway museum in York, going to theme parks, the zoo, coffee shops, and attending his favourite TV shows.
Working Hours
Be prepared to work flexibly, which could include shifts from 10am - 9pm, 10am - 2pm, or 6pm - 10pm. You'll also need to work alternate weekends and bank holidays.
Professional Development
We support your professional growth as a Support Worker. You'll be encouraged to participate in meetings, work towards qualifications, attend training courses, and learn new ways of working.

- Free DBS Check
- Salary Advance: Access part of your earned pay before payday
- Free Financial Education: Tools for budgeting and saving.
- Employee Assistance Programme
- Blue Light Card: Discounts on a variety of products and services
- Annual Leave: 30 days, rising to 35 days (including bank holidays)
