Summary

About Us

Caritas Diocese of Salford is the principal social action agency of the Catholic Diocese. Our mission is to put Love Into Action. We help those across Greater Manchester and Lancashire experiencing poverty, disadvantage, and discrimination to transform their lives with dignity. We provide a practical response to those in crisis, suffering hardship or who are at risk. We rebuild lives for the long-term, enabling people to live in a safe, healthy, and secure environment. We call for a better, more just world, where the voices of the poor are heard and acted upon and positively influence the systems, decisions and resources that affect those in need.

About the Job

We are advertising for Bank Support Workers to work a variety of shifts at our Young Parents’ and Child Accommodation in Blackburn which provides a high standard of housing management that delivers a safe and supported environment for young parents and their babies.

This accommodation operates a 24-hour support service with waking nights, 7 days a week. Therefore, we are looking to recruit Bank Support Workers to work days, evenings, nights and weekends to ensure a smooth-running service for our accommodation. This is a small service; therefore, you will lone work, be hands-on and work independently.

The role involves supporting young parents to look after the health and development of themselves and their children, as well as working positively with other professionals and agencies. You will provide excellent customer service, working with the young parents in a strengths-based way to support them to achieve their goals and help support them to move into their own independent tenancies.

An NVQ2 in Health & Social Care (Adults) or similar qualification or equivalent education or work experience is essential.

If this sounds like the next step you are looking for and you would like to work with an organisation passionate about transforming lives, we would love to hear from you!

Early applications are strongly encouraged as all applications will be reviewed as they are received, and we reserve the right to interview / appoint before the closing date.
