Summary
eady for a new job that actually means something?
Tired of the same routine? Want a job where you can make a real difference? Whether you're starting out, changing careers, or looking for something flexible - we've got a part-time (24 hours per week) opportunity waiting for you in Bellshill.
Be part of someone’s life — not just their support team
You'll become part of our friendly, welcoming team supporting a gentleman with complex needs who enjoys a trip to the bookies or going to the racing. He also enjoys attending the pub, playing pool and is a massive football fan! Due to being a smoker, you will need to be comfortable supporting him in this environment.
The person we support likes to spend weekends away so you may at some point be expected to take him on holiday.
Due to the needs of this service and the gentleman having his own mobility car, we will need you to have a full UK manual drivers licence.
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
Long service awards
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
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.
