We have higher-than-average staffing levels when compared to other care providers, giving you more time to spend with the people you support.

Above all, you’re someone who identifies with our values of fun, integrity, responsiveness, success and teamwork.

You’re also:

* caring, kind, understanding and calm

* able to deal with, and defuse, challenging situations

* energetic and outgoing, with a positive, can-do attitude

* a great listener and communicator, able to build trust and rapport with people

* comfortable working on your own initiative – but you know when to escalate

* a motivating team leader.

To apply for this role, you must have relevant experience, a Level 3 qualification in Health and Social care, plus Maths and English at GCSE Grade C or above (or relevant functional skills qualification).
