There are few better opportunities to learn about people than by getting to know someone who experiences the world differently from you.Working with autistic people can challenge our assumptions about communication, perception, emotion and behaviour, and invites us to become much more curious about how the human mind works.We are looking for someone who shares that curiosity and has a drive to improve the life of one person and his family: someone kind, open-minded enough to listen, learn and allow the person they support to teach them what good support looks like.You’ll join a small specialist team that provides bespoke support for an autistic man with a mild learning disability. He is curious, active, humorous and enjoys engaging with others. He can also experience anxiety and distress, and when he does, this can lead to behaviours of concern.Countryside walks are at the heart of this role. You’ll provide social and emotional support as he explores new places around Bristol and beyond and help him expand the places and activities he can access and enjoy in the community. At home, you’ll plan sessions with him so they are filled with meaningful activity. You’ll prepare resources for the things he enjoys and offer new activities, helping him develop skills, independence and confidence.You’ll receive extensive training, regular supervision and professional support by a highly experienced team with deep knowledge of autism and Positive Behaviour Support. We’ll support you towards Level 4 and 5 qualifications in PBS, and to progress to a Lead PBS Practitioner role if this interests you.Together, we’ll create the conditions for him to feel less anxious and to thrive, working towards goals that matter to him.Professional experience in autism, PBS or similar complex needs essential. You will need a driving licence and your own car.Hours: 29 a week, plus annual holiday support. Later, 27 hours plus a weekly sleep-in. We’re open to discussing a small reduction in hours.Salary: £28,160 a year including holiday support, rising to £30,015 when sleep-ins begin. £17.50 per hour; £72 per sleep-in.Location: East BristolDeadline: 5th November 2026To request detailed job information and an application form, email Auron or Tania at support@ukcil.com .
