Are you committed to making a difference to the lives of the people we support?
Do you have a positive attitude?
Are you committed to a person-centred approach?
Then you could be Key!
We are recruiting for female Support Workers to join our well-established team in Bearsden, working with “Kate,” a young woman with autism and a learning disability. Kate lives in her own home and has her own car. She is seeking support with all aspects of her life, including personal care, taking care of her home and finances, as well as developing and maintaining full and active participation in the local community.
Kate is very sociable and loves being out and about; she is happy to try new activities. She has a real love of animals, enjoys walking dogs, and has recently got her own fish that she loves taking care of. Kate is kind, funny, and really interested in others.
A commitment to a person-centred approach is essential, and experience of working with people with learning disabilities is desirable.
Applicants should be able to work flexibly as part of the team. We provide 24-hour care each day with shift patterns including early shifts, backshifts, evenings, weekends, and sleepovers. Successful applicants must also have a driving licence.
Key provides excellent professional supervision, support, and training, including access to the SVQ Framework, and a chance to really make a difference to people’s lives.
Join us and make every day matter! No experience necessary! Training and support will be given to help you achieve your full potential.
If you would like to get involved in support work but cannot commit to a contract due to other commitments, we also have opportunities to join our register of relief workers who provide support based on their availability.
We encourage you to submit your application at the earliest convenience as we may be able to offer interviews at an earlier date to shortlisted candidates.
If you would like to arrange an informal chat to find out more, please contact Lindsay Williamson, Support & Development Manager at 0141 956 3989 or email lindsay.williamson@key.org.uk.
