Support Worker

Leonard Cheshire is looking for a Support Worker to join its Pinewood service in Livingston, West Lothian. You would help the people who live there with everyday life and encourage them to be as independent as possible.

What you would do:

• Help with personal care, meals and medication
• Go with people to appointments and activities in the community
• Encourage independence and choice
• Keep clear, accurate records

What they are looking for: a warm, caring and friendly person who communicates well and works well in a team. You need to be able to work weekends. Experience of personal care helps but is not essential. You will need a satisfactory PVG check.

Hours: full-time and part-time permanent roles on a rota covering weekdays and weekends. Day shifts run roughly 7am to 9pm and night shifts 9.30pm to 7.30am.

Pay is £13.55 per hour. Stated benefits include 30 days' holiday including bank holidays (rising to 35), access to up to 40% of pay before payday, a Blue Light Card, a contributory pension with life cover, a health cash plan, apprenticeships and recognised qualifications, free PVG membership and a 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme.
