At Dimensions, we believe every person deserves a great life and that starts with you.

We’re looking for a Support Worker to join our team in Clacton-on-Sea, supporting five wonderful individuals across two supported living homes. In this role, no two days are the same.

In one home, you’ll be supporting three ladies aged between 50 and 70. One has recently moved in, and all enjoy a mix of creative and social interests, from baking and painting to music classes and history chats. They love shopping, going on holidays, and spending time with family. You’ll be the sole staff member on shift, working 1:1 with each person to support their routines, promote independence, and help them live the life they choose. You’ll assist with medication, personal care (as needed), and meal preparation.

In the second home, you’ll support a gentleman and a lady in their 70s and 80s. He’s energetic and independent, enjoying trips to the railway club, café visits, gardening, and monthly massages. Together, they enjoy shopping in Harwich, they like to stick to familiar routines and enjoy spending time in their garden. You’ll support with medication, food preparation, and personal care.

Shift patterns run from 7:00am to 2:30pm and 2:30pm to 10:00pm, with occasional long days (15 hours) and a minimum of one sleep-in per week. You’ll need to be flexible, confident working alone, and comfortable travelling between both homes.

You don’t need previous experience, just the right values. In return, you’ll join a team that genuinely cares. We offer a competitive salary, up to 35 days annual leave, sector-leading training, and a wide range of benefits, from wellbeing support to shopping discounts, a bike-to-work scheme, and a £200 bonus for referring a friend.

You’ll also have access to Aspire, our award-winning career development programme, and be part of a culture that promotes from within.
