Galashiels, Scottish Borders, United Kingdom Cornerstone Full time

About Cornerstone

We are a vibrant and dynamic service that provides complex support and vocational opportunities to adults with physical and learning disabilities. Our team is passionate about enabling the people we support to live a fulfilling and valued life.

The Role

We are seeking a Support Practitioner to join our team, who will be involved in a mixture of organised group activities and 1:1 complex and shared support. The successful candidate will have a caring and compassionate attitude, good communication and organisational skills, and the ability to work well in a team.

About You

We don't need experience as a Support Worker or Carer to join Cornerstone. We recruit on values and transferrable skills, and we're more interested in what you as a person will bring to our team. You will take an active role in the planning and delivery of person-centred care and encourage the people we support to express their views and wishes within their personal plan.

What We Offer

We will pay you for your training and will even fund your SVQ (SCQF level 6/7) and yearly SSSC registration fees too. We are committed to providing a supportive and friendly work environment, and we offer a range of benefits and opportunities for professional development.

Shift Patterns

Currently, shift patterns usually fall within the hours of Monday-Friday, but we may require occasional evening and weekend support. We are working towards providing some evening and weekend opportunities too.
