Since the early days, we’ve grown to provide many innovative and bespoke care services to thousands of people across England and Scotland. We want to provide support based on the principles of choice, dignity and respect. This resonates in our vision of ‘Your Life, Your Choice’ and our strategy ‘Best Lives Possible’.
We have strong values and we’re proud to pioneer new ways of delivering social care to stand out in our sector. In the past two years, we have won or made the shortlist for over national and regional awards
We are also focused on our people. Our Support Workers are dedicated and passionate about going ‘the extra mile’ for the people we support and in return, we go the extra mile for them by investing in pay, recognition, wellbeing and continued professional and personal development. We will provide you with all the training, support and personal protective equipment you need in your role and will help you develop, should you decide you want to develop your career with us.

•The opportunity to try new things while supporting people to achieve their goals Who you’ll be supporting & more about the role: Are you a positive and motivated person who is experienced in supporting individuals within their own homes?
Are you looking to gain great experience in a satisfying job where you feel supported?
If this sounds like you, maybe a Support Worker role with an award-winning charity is the change you’ve been looking for
At Moredun, we support 7 individuals who live in their own homes in the Gilmerton area of Edinburgh and are recruiting for one of our core teams in the service.
In this team, you’ll support 6 gentlemen with mental health concerns, autism and physical disabilities to live independently in their own homes. The men we support enjoy a wide range of activities, including socialising, watching movies, shopping, cooking, sports, music and travelling. However, they’re always up for trying new things, so are looking for inventive people who are up for the challenge.
Experience of Positive Behaviour Support would be beneficial in this team, but if you’ve not got this, we’ll provide the training you need to ensure you’re successful in your role. In this team, we can offer 24 - 37.5 hours per week on permanent contracts and would require male staff.
In both teams, you can expect to support individuals with:
•Medication administration
•Cooking and home maintenance
•Social support and support to achieve personal goals
•Finance management
Our teams provide support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so we ask for flexibility to work a variety of shifts including days, sleepovers, waking nights and some weekends.
Our shift patterns can vary but are generally:
- 8am - 10pm
- 9am - 7pm
- 8am - 2.30pm
- 2.30pm - 10pm
- 10pm - 8am (Sleepover)- Waking nights Sometimes the people we support really need a male or female person to support them. For this particular role, a male colleague is required. This is a genuine occupational requirement as defined by the Equality Act Your values: The people we support like to be supported by people who respect them and their homes, but who also like to have fun
We like people who are reliable and honest and are able to remain calm under pressure, so they can support people effectively and build fantastic relationships.
