Fun, energetic SUPPORT WORKER wanted to join our friendly team!
Based in the village of Marton cum Grafton – easily commutable from York, Harrogate and Leeds, close to the A1.
You will be supporting an active young lady with autism and learning disabilities to live her best life.
She lives at home where she enjoys outings, walking, cycling, and swimming, especially open water swimming. The railway museum, canals with ducks and Fountains Abbey are her favourite places. She enjoys listening to music, baking, cooking, drawing and spending time with her family.
We’re looking for someone patient, caring, and confident, with experience of supporting people with autism. You will need BSL Level 1 as a minimum and you must be a good communicator to support someone who is very sociable and likes to share activities and experiences.
You will be supporting and enabling a young lady to live as independently as possible. You will need to give support with personal care, so the job is suitable for female applicants only. You will be guiding her through her day, giving advice and explanation to help her make good choices and decisions.
This is more than just a job — it’s a chance to empower someone to live a fulfilling, independent life, surrounded by people who care.
You’ll be part of a supportive and dedicated team. Activities out of the home will be 2:1.
If you’re compassionate, experienced, and ready to make a difference, we’d love to hear from you!
