    Post: Support Worker (Various Shift Patterns)
    Salary: £8.75 - £8.97 per Hour - Sleepover Payment £70.00 per Sleepover

    Kingdom Support and Care are looking for upbeat, confident and energetic people to join their team in Falkirk/Slamannan area.

    They provide care and support to people to live in their own homes and to have as full a life as possible and to be part of their local community. On a day-to-day basis you may: go to the cinema, go shopping, out for lunch, visit a nail salon or go on day trips to Edinburgh, Glasgow or further afield.  They also support people with the less fun things in life such as housework and paying bills, tasks we all have to do but we recognise the sense of achievement a person can gain from learning these skills.

    They provide support for individuals with autism who present behaviours of challenge but that is a small part of what they do. They prefer to focus on fun activities and building respectful and understanding relationships. The more fun and enjoyable experiences a person has, the less they will display behaviours of challenge. To support staff into the service, they offer a comprehensive induction period with training tailored to the service and a buddy system to new staff, so you have the support of the whole team.

    The service is set up as a core and cluster so your colleagues are always nearby if you need them. New team members bring new ideas and thoughts which is something they always welcome and learn from, so come and help them to continue to develop and provide great support! The post is subject to a PVG Disclosure Scotland check and a current full UK driving licence and use of car for work purposes are essential for this post.

    In return for the above they will offer an attractive salary and benefits package including full funding and support towards an SVQ qualification in Care and generous annual leave entitlement. More information on the post and the organisation is available from their website, where you can also download an application pack.  Alternatively you can contact them to request an application pack to be sent or e-mailed to you.  By e-mail: [email protected] , please quote vacancy number 550.

    The closing date for applications is Wednesday 31 October 2018 at 12 o'clock.
