Summary

Looking for a brand-new role with a sense of satisfaction you’ll struggle to find anywhere else?

Then you could be exactly who we’re looking for! We’re welcoming new team members to our amazing #TeamNith in Glasgow, with full-time, part-time and relief opportunities available.

The role and the people you’ll support

At Cornerstone, everything we do is centred around supporting people to identify and achieve their goals. We work alongside the individuals we support to create personal plans that reflect their choices, support needs, abilities and aspirations.

In this role, you’ll support two amazing brothers with an Autism diagnosis in their shared home, helping them with all aspects of their daily lives.

Their hobbies include watching their favourite TV shows, playing video games and having a bit of fun with pranks! Most importantly, the brothers are looking for someone who will take the time to get to know them, learn about their interests, respect their home and build genuine, positive relationships with them.

You’ll be joining a brand new team where your support can make a real difference.

Together, you’ll help the brothers to:

🏡 Maintain their own home and enjoy the life they choose

💪 Increase and maintain their independence

❤️ Receive support with all aspects of personal care

🌱 Develop their social, health and wellbeing

🎯 Work towards their individual goals and aspirations

Why you'll love it here

You'll have a meaningful job doing things that you enjoy - it often doesn't feel like work

No uniform - we wear our own casual clothes

We fund up to £500 towards driving lessons

We reimburse your SSSC registration and PVG fees

Access to professional development and career progression opportunities

Recommend a colleague bonus scheme

Access to a 24/7 independent employee assistance helpline

26 days annual leave (rising by 5 days after 5 years) plus 4 paid bank holidays

Family friendly leave options, including family, parental, bereavement and special leave

Access to lots of discounts, including the cinema, gym memberships, holidays and shopping

If you’re kind, patient, creative and genuinely want to make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.

Successful candidates will be invited to interview at our Glasgow office on the 29th and 30th September.

Successful candidates will be required to join the Protection of Vulnerable Groups Scheme and be committed to working towards an SVQ in Social Services and Healthcare with the support from our Training Academy. If you're successful in joining our team, we will need you to register with the SSSC within 3 months of starting your employment with us.

Please note - If you have spent more than 12 months out with the UK (excluding France, Germany. Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania or Spain) within the last 10 years while over the age of 18, you will be asked to provide a criminal record certificate from the relevant government/police authority as part of our pre-employment checks.

Cornerstone welcomes applications from all sections of the community and actively seeks to increase the diversity of our workforce.
