Become a Support Worker
What matters to the people we support matters to us. It’s their life, their way.
We are looking for someone to join the team supporting 4 ladies in their own flats in Boulevard, Kent. They enjoy Bingo, Knitting, socialising over a cuppa and shopping.

This is a full-time role and you should be available to work shifts across the week and some weekends, including some sleep-in shifts as needed.
There are poor public transport links to this location so you will need to drive and have access to your own vehicle to be able to get to and from location for shift times (7am-2.30pm and 2.30pm-10pm)
Ability to commute/relocate: Postcode area CT3 - You must be able to reliably commute for shift start times or plan to relocate before starting work (required)
