At Sanctuary Supported Living, we specialise in delivering a wide range of personalised housing, care and support services to help people across England to live as independently as possible.

We're a national organisation, but we're not-for-profit and we think locally by putting our customers at the heart of what we do.

We're committed to being our best and helping customers to be their best, as we support them on their pathways for independence.

No matter your job - delivering support directly or working in our offices to support our frontline teams - your work makes a difference every day.

And working with us isn't just another job. It's rewarding, inspiring, exciting and it provides an opportunity to make a real, positive impact on people's lives. Plus, we'll support you in reaching your aspirations and career goals, through comprehensive training and benefits.

The role of Senior Care and Support Assistant will include :

  • Leading a team of Care and Support Assistants
  • Working closely with staff to provide personal care and support to customers, and encourage them to enhance their independence and personal potential
  • Safe handling of medication
  • Building and maintaining relationships with internal and external customers
  • Promoting safe practices and undertaking risk assessments as appropriate
  • Managing and implementing safeguarding principles to ensure the safety of our customers

Skills and experiences :

  • Recent experience of working in a similar role with vulnerable people is essential
  • Previous experience supervising a team
  • Personalised approach to care and support, with strong interpersonal skills and the ability to form positive relationships with people from varied backgrounds
  • Enthusiastic and flexible with a strong "can-do" attitude
  • Strong organisational skills as well as functional literacy and numeracy
  • NVQ level 2 in Health and Social Care, or equivalent qualification
  • Understanding of relevant legislation and best practice
  • Are you ready to be your best?

    Brilliant work deserves brilliant benefits! As part of our commitment to making Sanctuary Supported Living a great place to work, here are just some of the ways we'll reward you :

  • At least 25 days paid holiday, rising to 30 days after 5 years' service (plus public holidays) pro rata
  • A pension scheme with employer contributions
  • A variety of online discounts and rewards from major retailers
  • Health and well-being plans
  • Life assurance
  • Family friendly arrangements, including opportunities for flexible working
  • Tax efficient savings through our Cycle to Work scheme
  • A wide range of learning and development opportunities
