Become a Support Worker.
What matters to the people we support matters to us. It’s their life, their way.
We are looking for warm and friendly people to join our team supporting 5 people who live independently in Lowestoft. You will be working alongside them in their own home so it’s important you can connect, share interests and be interested. This role will involve a real hands-on approach supporting them to maintain their health and wellbeing. They enjoy a variety of activities at home and within their community, so if you enjoy new and exciting things to do, then this could be just the place for you.
You should be available to work a shift starting at 4pm, sleep in then finish at 4pm and be available to work some weekends
So if you enjoy building meaningful relationships and think you could plan, communicate and deliver support with and alongside people, then this is the place for you.
