Support Worker

Job Description

Location: Bracknell

Are you passionate about making a genuine difference in a young person's life?

We are seeking dedicated and empathetic Support Workers to join our team in Bracknell. Our supported living service provides a safe, nurturing environment for young people aged 16 - 18 as they navigate the crucial transition into adulthood.

We don't just provide a roof over their heads, we equip them with the tangible life skills they need to thrive.

What You Will Do:
  • Prioritise Safety & Wellbeing: Ensure the physical and emotional safety of our young people remains paramount during this transition period.

  • Build Independence: Mentor residents in developing everyday life skills (cooking, budgeting, managing appointments).

  • Support Pathways: Help young people engage with our unique apprenticeship and trade skill programmes to prepare them for independent living.

  • Be a Trusted Adult: Provide a listening ear, set positive boundaries, and act as a reliable role model.

Shift Patterns Available:

We offer flexible shift patterns to fit your lifestyle, though flexibility is required to meet the needs of the service:

  • Early: 08:00 - 16:00

  • Late: 12:00 - 20:00

  • Note: Early and late shifts may occasionally be combined into a long day.

  • Waking Nights: 20:00 - 08:00

What We Are Looking For:
  • A resilient, patient, and empathetic nature with a passion for supporting young people.

  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to handle challenging situations calmly.

  • Prior experience in health and social care, youth work, or supported living is a plus, but a great attitude and values-driven approach are most important.
