Are you interested in working for an award winning social care charity?

Personal Assistants (Support Workers) have the most important role within Enable by making a positive difference every day to the lives of the people we support. No two days are the same for our Personal Assistants but what we can guarantee is that you will be supporting someone who requires support to achieve their goals and outcomes – whatever they may be!

Each person we support has different support requirements, so your role as Support Worker may include assisting them with various aspects of personal care, moving and handling or positive behavioural support whilst expanding their social networks and connections.

Enable creates a bespoke team around every individual we support, and our team of Personal Assistants work collaboratively to ensure the safety, wellbeing and aspirations of the people we support are met.

The Best in You Brings Out the Best in Me

The people we support have many varied interests and hobbies and have many of the same dreams and aspirations as we do; they just too often do not get the opportunity to experience these same opportunities. A career with Enable is as rewarding as it is diverse. Personal Assistants at their best have the potential to truly bring out the best in the people we support.

Let us introduce you to J:

It’s important to me to be as independent as possible. I need support to enhance my daily living skills. I like to make the most out of life and enjoy Elvis’s tribute nights, going out for meals, shopping especially for new clothes. I like to work in the garden within the service. I really enjoy art and music. Sometimes, I like to visit the car boot sale and charity shops to see if I can get a bargain.

The Victoria Service is looking for enthusiastic personal assistants who can help to make a real difference to people we support. Victoria is a Mental Health Recovery service which provides 24/7 support to 13 adults. When people come to the Victoria service, they aspire to develop their daily living skills which would help them move into their own tenancy or a less supported environment.

Are you ready to make a real difference to everyone at the Victoria Service?

If you think you share the same interests and have the commitment, dedication, and above all, desire to support J to get the most out of life; then please apply now! Enable needs you and your values to help us create an equal society for every person we support. You don\'t need experience in care to start your social care career with Enable. We recruit people based on their values and transferable skills. Wherever your journey has taken you up until now, join us, and together we will forge a new path in what could potentially be the most rewarding role you have ever had!
