Are you a kind, reliable and patient person who wants to make a real difference to people’s lives?

Our client is looking for Support Workers to join their services in Swindon, supporting adults with learning disabilities and/or autism to live as independently as possible within their own homes.

This is a rewarding role where you will help people build confidence, develop daily living skills, access the community, maintain routines, make choices and live with dignity, respect and independence.

Experience in care is welcome, but it is not essential. What matters most is that you have the right values, attitude and commitment.


About The Role

About the role

As a Support Worker, you will provide person-centred support based around each individual’s needs, wishes and care plan.

Your role may include:

  • Supporting people with daily living tasks such as cooking, cleaning, budgeting and personal routines
  • Encouraging independence, confidence and choice
  • Supporting people to access the community, activities, appointments and social opportunities
  • Providing emotional support and promoting wellbeing
  • Supporting personal care where required
  • Helping people maintain relationships with family, friends and others important to them
  • Working in line with person-centred care plans
  • Keeping accurate records and communicating clearly with the wider team
  • Promoting dignity, inclusion, safety and respect at all times

You will be working in people’s homes, so it is important that you are respectful, professional and understand that the people we support should feel safe, listened to and in control of their own lives.

  • Kind, caring, patient and respectful
  • Reliable, punctual and committed
  • Positive, motivated and willing to learn
  • Able to work well as part of a team
  • Confident using their own initiative
  • Calm, resilient and able to adapt to different situations
  • Flexible with working hours, including weekends and bank holidays
  • Committed to supporting people in a person-centred way
  • Looking for a long-term role where they can develop

Previous care experience is desirable, but not essential. Full training will be provided.

You must already have the right to work in the UK.

A driver is not essential, but would be preferred.

Shift patterns

Shifts may include:

  • 7:00am – 3:00pm
  • 3:00pm – 10:00pm
  • 7:00am – 10:00pm
  • Sleep-ins
  • Waking nights
  • Weekend and bank holiday shifts on a rota basis

Flexibility is important so we can meet the needs of the people we support.

What we offer

  • £13.00 per hour
  • Overtime available
  • Paid Enhanced DBS check
  • Full induction and mandatory training
  • Ongoing training and development
  • Opportunity to complete NVQ Level 2 and Level 3 in Health & Social Care

  • Free parking
  • Supportive management and team environment
