Hours: Flexible shifts on a 24/7 rota (planned in advance)
About the role
As a Support Worker at Brandon Trust, you’ll be part of something meaningful—supporting autistic people and people with learning disabilities to live life in the way that suits them best. Whether it’s helping someone pursue a new hobby, build routines, plan a trip, attend their work, maintain their house or simply enjoy their day, you’ll be working alongside them to make it happen.
You’ll support with day-to-day activities like shopping, cooking, and managing health needs—always led by the person’s own preferences and goals.
You’ll also support with personal care. This means helping people with washing, dressing, and other essential personal routines. It’s a vital part of enabling people to live with dignity, choice, and independence. Personal care is always delivered in a respectful and person-centred way, in line with each individual's needs and preferences.
No two days are the same, and every day brings the opportunity to be part of someone’s progress and independence.
Why this role matters
You’ll be joining people on their own journeys—whether that’s growing in confidence, building friendships, or trying something new. You’ll see the real impact of your support and share in the everyday moments that matter most.
This is work with purpose. You’ll be part of a supportive team that values respect, individuality, and connection.
What we’re looking for
- A kind and thoughtful approach rooted in empathy and respect
- A genuine interest in other people’s lives, routines, and goals
- Strong communication skills and the ability to work well in a team
- A positive attitude and a willingness to learn
- A commitment to inclusion and celebrating what makes each person unique
- A full UK driving licence
No experience? That’s okay.
Your values and behaviours matter more than your background. If you're someone who listens well, treats others with respect, and genuinely wants to support people to live their lives, we’ll provide everything you need to succeed. With full training, ongoing support, and development opportunities, you’ll be supported every step of the way.

About us Our Vision A world where all child refugees are welcomed, safe and inspired with hope to rebuild their lives for a better future. Our mission It is our mission to serve young people who have been forced to flee their home country – offering safe homes, education, therapeutic care and support in every area of their lives. We believe each young person, many of whom are victims of human trafficking, has a dignity worth celebrating, talents worth discovering and a life to live to its fullest potential, no matter their past experiences nor present circumstances. We are committed to providing an inspiring environment that raises hope and strengthens resilience. Our Values Respect Treating everyone with dignity in all circumstances. Integrity Unexaggerated truth, expressed with humility, purity of motive and sincerity of intention, in both our words and deeds. Passion Embracing risk for the sake of the mission, with courage to take bold risks and to innovate despite adversity. Grace Costly additional opportunity for everyone, to enable us to be our best by being perpetual learners. Compassion Serving sacrificially, rooted in an unwavering zeal to seek the best for those we serve and not self. Wisdom Finding a way through a challenge by listening, learning, perceiving what is at stake, applying insight and considering diverse options. Our Impact, Outcomes and Goals We are passionate about seeing the young people we serve become positive and empowered individuals, building on their resilience and strengths to contribute to the world around them. Outcomes We deliver this impact through our therapeutic support for all areas of life, specifically aimed at achieving the following outcomes - Increased Personal Safety, Increased engagement with Education, Employment and Training, Improved Emotional Wellbeing, Improved Physical Wellbeing and Increased Social engagement. Strategic Goals Strengthen Baca’s holistic service for young, forced migrants Enhance Baca’s service to maximise the potential of each young person Engage locally, regionally and nationally to see a world where child refugees are welcomed, safe and have hope to rebuild their lives for a better future. Thank you very much for your interest in this role at Baca. We support young people who have been forced to flee their home country, because of war, persecution, or trafficking. We provide the support they need which includes a safe home, education and therapeutic care. The young people we serve have lost the only life they know and have overcome all the odds to reach safety. Their courage inspires us but without support they are at extreme risk of harm and exploitation. We are committed to providing an inspiring environment that raises hope and strengthens resilience – enabling them to fulfil their potential and become thriving members of the community. We consider it an absolute privilege to be able to walk with them on a daily basis. We take heart from the several positive stories of young people’s transition into adulthood, establishing their lives and being a positive contribution to the world around them. However, we recognise the huge pressures they continue to face and therefore, we believe there is still a long way to go as we continue to learn from them. We believe there are greater depths of development for each young person to achieve so that they do not fall back into exploitation or any other dangerous environment. If successful, you will be joining a passionate and committed team, with strong expertise. You will find that the team are committed to our values, which has built a culture that seeks to allow everyone to be their best in order to give their best for the sake of the young people we serve.
