  • Leading a team of Care and Support Assistants
  • Working closely with staff to provide personal care and support to customers, and encourage them to enhance their independence and personal potential
  • Safe handling of medication
  • Building and maintaining relationships with internal and external customers
  • Promoting safe practices and undertaking risk assessments as appropriate
  • Managing and implementing safeguarding principles to ensure the safety of our customers

 

Skills and experiences:

  • Recent experience of working in a similar role with vulnerable people is essential
  • Previous experience supervising a team
  • Personalised approach to care and support, with strong interpersonal skills and the ability to form positive relationships with people from varied backgrounds
  • Enthusiastic and flexible with a strong “can-do” attitude
  • Strong organisational skills as well as functional literacy and numeracy
  • NVQ level 2 in Health and Social Care, or equivalent qualification
  • Understanding of relevant legislation and best practice

 

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) pro rata
  • A pension scheme with employer contributions
  • A variety of online discounts and rewards from major retailers
  • Health and well-being plans
  • Life assurance
  • Family friendly arrangements, including opportunities for flexible working
  • Tax efficient savings through our Cycle to Work scheme
  • A wide range of learning and development opportunities

We reserve the right depending on application numbers to close or extend the closing dates for positions; we would therefore recommend an early application.
