Are you interested in working for an award winning social care charity?

Personal Assistants (Support Workers) have the most important role within Enable by making a positive difference every day to the lives of the people we support. No two days are the same for our Personal Assistants but what we can guarantee is that you will be supporting someone who requires support to achieve their goals and outcomes – whatever they may be!

Each person we support has different support requirements, so your support worker role may include assisting them with various aspects of personal care, moving and handling or positive behavioural support whilst expanding their social networks and connections.

Enable creates a bespoke team around every individual we support, and our team of Personal Assistants work collaboratively to ensure the safety, wellbeing and aspirations of the people we support are met.

The Best in You Brings Out the Best in Me

The people we support have many varied interests and hobbies and have many of the same dreams and aspirations as we do; they just too often do not get the opportunity to experience these same opportunities. So whatever your interests are; be it sewing, baking, having a cup of tea and chat to horse riding, swimming or hill-walking, we want to hear from you!

A career with Enable is as rewarding as it is diverse, Personal Assistants at their best have the potential to truly bring out the best in the people we support.

Let us introduce you to Jordan :

Jordan is a young man who is in his early 20's, he has moved around a lot and now settled back in his local area, Jordan enjoys technology and WWE, he sees the world differently and requires routines and boundaries to feel safe. Jordan will be working towards accessing his local community again and at the moment likes to watch you tube and spend time researching topics that he enjoys, Jordan can communicate verbally his choices and his team of personal assistants would support him to ensure that he is making good choices and only requires prompts to ensure that he is managing his daily life in a structured way. Over time Jordan would benefit from developing life skills to allow him to live as independently as possible within his new home.

That is why Jordan needs you! Will you bring your best so that Jordan can live his best life?
