Job description

£13.55 per hour | Full-time / Part-time | Pinewood, Livingston

A home, not just a service
Pinewood is home for seven adults with learning and physical disabilities. We’re in the Deans of Livingston, West Lothian and are close to both nature and town. Our service feels like family – relaxed, supportive, and centred around the people who live here. Every day brings new moments to celebrate: from small wins in independence to big laughs over mealtimes.

Your working hours
We offer both full-time and part-time hours.
You’ll need to be flexible to work across weekdays and weekends as part of a rota

Typical shifts may include:

  • Day shifts: 7am-3pm, 2pm-10pm
  • Night shifts: 9.30pm-7.30am


Why you’ll love working here
As well as supporting your wellbeing and career development, we offer a fantastic benefits package, including:

  • 30 days holiday per annum inclusive of bank holidays (+1 day every year up to 35 days)
  • Stream: Access up to 40% of your pay before payday
  • Free Blue Light Card: Enjoy exclusive discounts and perks
  • Contributory Pension Scheme with competitive life cover
  • Health cash plan: Affordable healthcare when you need it
  • Career development: Apprenticeships and recognised qualifications
  • Free PVG membership
  • Employee Assistance Programme for 24/7 support


What you’ll do

  • Support with daily living tasks such as personal care, mealtimes, and medication
  • Encourage independence through a person-centred approach
  • Accompany people to appointments, events, and community activities
  • Keep clear, accurate records
  • Most importantly – help each person live life on their own terms


What helps you shine here

  • Warm, friendly, and empathetic approach
  • Willingness to work flexibly, including weekends
  • Good communication and teamwork skills
  • Personal care experience (helpful, but not essential)
  • A genuine desire to help others and make a difference
