What We’re Offering:
We’re currently recruiting full-time and part-time Social Care Assistants / Support Workers.
With vacancies in East Hull and West Hull, we offer a variety of contracts to fit your lifestyle and we’re happy to discuss flexible options with you.
As a Social Care Assistant / Support Worker, you’ll provide vital support to individuals with learning disabilities and complex needs.
This includes emotional, behavioural, physical, and social challenges, and often a combination of these.
Your responsibilities will include:
* Delivering compassionate, skilled care to clients.
* Acting as a Key Worker, coordinating and updating care plans.
* Communicating with families, friends, and relatives.
* Administering or supervising medication.
* Assisting with household tasks and day-to-day activities.

* Supporting clients on holidays and ensuring they enjoy nutritious, high-quality meals.
You’ll work a mix of early, late, and night shifts on a rotational basis.
What We’re Looking For:
You don’t need formal experience in social care – we value life experience and transferable skills. If you’ve had a caring role in any capacity, we’d love to hear from you!
We understand this role can be challenging, but we’ll support you every step of the way with:
* Full training and induction.
* Regular mentoring.
* Ongoing career development in a nurturing environment.
What Makes You Stand Out:
* A positive, “can-do” attitude.
* The ability to see life from our clients’ perspectives and respond with empathy and encouragement.
* A desire to make a real difference in people’s lives every day.
