  • Supporting customers to go to into the local community e.g. visits to local shops and cafes, visiting friends and attending GP appointments
  • Promoting a positive culture by engaging with customers to prevent social isolation
  • Working with customers and other staff members to ensure a clean and comfortable environment
  • Promoting safe practices and undertaking risk assessments

  • Ability to be flexible and adapt to the changing needs of customers
  • Excellent organisation skills

Are you ready to be your best?

Brilliant work deserves brilliant benefits As part of our commitment to making Sanctuary Supported Living a great place to work, here are just some of the ways we’ll reward you:

  • At least 25 days paid holiday, rising to 30 days after 5 years’ service (plus public holidays)
