You will also be supporting some individuals to move from residential care to a life in the community providing advice and guidance.



We wish to recruit an energetic and motivated individual, with good communication skills who can work effectively with other agencies. As a Community Care Worker, you will complete assessments and support plans that are person centered. It is desirable that you have some knowledge and experience in supporting individuals who have a learning disability. You will need to be able to prioritise your work and respond to and support customers changing needs, whilst demonstrating empathy and adapting your communication to the individual’s needs. Applications are welcome from candidates with the ability to encourage, support and engage with carers and vulnerable adults.



We are a friendly and dynamic team where the principle of supporting each other is held as good practice.

As part of our safer recruitment checks the successful candidate will be subject to an enhanced DBS check.

All employees will normally be appointed to the minimum of the grade for the job. For reasons connected with a particular need of the Council it may be appropriate, subject to approval, to appoint to a higher point in the pay grade.

Before you complete your application form please read our guidance on filling in your application form.

Quick Tip! Remember to align your personal statement to the Essential Criteria in the Person Specification
