FULL UK DRIVING LICENCE ESSENTIAL (Automatic transmission)

Are you a patient, resilient, and confident individual with a passion for making a difference?

Do you want to be part of the transition form living with her father to gaining her independence in her own home

We’re looking for exceptional Support Workers to provide dedicated support for a lady in her 30s to live her life independently, support with daily living skills, prompting and promoting personal hygiene

This role is an opportunity to make a real impact, supporting someone with autism and obsessive-compulsive behaviours. You’ll help her lead a fulfilling life by understanding her unique needs and providing both practical and emotional support.

About the Role

As a Support Worker, your key responsibilities will include:

• Building a strong, trusting relationship to provide day-to-day support.
• Encouraging and participating in activities, such as going for walks (she loves the colour blue!).
• Supporting with daily routines and managing behaviours of distress.
• Delivering emotional support with patience and understanding.
• Providing transport, so a valid driver’s license is essential.

Shifts will typically run from 7am - 10pm, including a sleep-in shift followed by a morning shift from 7am - 10am. Please note, flexibility is required, as there is the possibility of no guaranteed finish at 10am.

About You

To thrive in this role, you’ll need to:

• Be strong, resilient, and adaptable in supporting someone with complex needs.
• Have experience working with autism and an understanding of obsessive-compulsive behaviors (preferred).
• Be patient, confident, and emotionally supportive.
• Be familiar with the Widnes area (preferred).

What We Offer

• A rewarding role where you can make a genuine difference in someone’s life.
• Flexible working options: Full-Time, Part-Time, or Relief Staff.
• Ongoing training and support to develop your skills.

If you’re ready to bring your empathy, strength, and resilience to this meaningful role, we’d love to hear from you.
