Relief hours: £6.77 to £7.60*

At MacIntyre we are currently recruiting for our Bedford service, which provides 24 hour support to adults with learning disabilities. As part of a close team, your role will be to help and encourage each individual we support to live the life they want through an approach which is completely centred around them.

The successful applicants will have a caring value base, and will be comfortable providing physical and emotional support. Your role will be to help facilitate daily activities, which could involve taking a trip out shopping or simply having a chat and a cup of tea.
Experience in social care may be advantageous but not essential, as you will receive a comprehensive induction. This will involve training to help you manage individual behaviours, apply intensive interaction techniques, develop sensory working and ensure person centered working. A full manual driving licence is essential.

In return for your commitment we offer comprehensive training and career development opportunities, 33 days holiday per year including Bank Holidays (rising after one year's service) and a generous contributory pension plan.

*Salaries are dependent on qualifications and successful completion of probationary period.
