Are you a warm, passionate and empathetic individual? If so, we are looking for Support Workers to join our Mental Health supported living service.

This position involves providing individualised person centred care and support to adults with mental health needs living in supported housing. You will be responsible for promoting emotional wellbeing and independence, encouraging the people we support to enjoy a fulfilling and valued life.

Support Worker Duties:

  • Develop and sustain warm and trusting relationships with service users
  • Promote the self-esteem, happiness and emotional health of service users, encouraging and supporting them to express their needs, views and concerns
  • Provide respectful personal care in accordance with the needs, wishes and preferred routines outlined in the individual’s personal support plans
  • Supporting people in a wide range of activities within their home and community

Experience is desirable for this role, but it is not essential as full training will be provided. One of our tenants has a beloved cat, so applicants need to be able to work in this environment. A driver’s license is also desirable.

Benefits of working with Creative Support:

  • A one-off bonus of £100 upon successful completion of the 4-month probationary period
  • Competitive pay and a pension with company contribution and 28 days annual leave
  • Company paid enhanced DBS for all staff
  • Free employee support programme
  • All our staff are supported 24/7 by our out-of-hours teams
  • Support to complete the nationally recognised Care Certificate and Social Care Diploma

We are a passionate, inclusive and anti-racist organisation. We embrace diversity and encourage applicants from all backgrounds and cultures. As a Disability Confident Employer we welcome applications from people with a disability, and as a proud Stonewall Diversity Champion we actively encourage applications from the LGBT+ community.

We would encourage you to apply to us even if you have not yet had your COVID 19 vaccine. You will be required to have your first COVID 19 vaccine prior to your interview and your second vaccine before you start work with us. This time will be used to complete post interview recruitment checks. Applicants who are unable to receive the vaccination on medical grounds are still welcome to apply with provision of their official NHS COVID pass letter of medical exemption.

We can only accept applications from candidates who are located in and eligible to work within the UK.

We will be interviewing for this role as suitable applications are received and may close this role before the closing date upon a successful candidate being appointed.
