Are you looking for work that fits around your life?

Here at Sense, we support people with complex disabilities to live the life they choose. We're looking for a Relief Support Worker to join our small, close-knit team at Monks Dyke Road in Louth, Lincolnshire on a flexible, bank basis, paying £13.00 per hour.

You'll be part of a team supporting five people with complex needs to live full, meaningful lives on their own terms - whether that's helping someone cook a meal they love, encouraging them to get out into the community, or simply being a steady, trusted presence at home. No two days are the same, and that's what makes this role so rewarding.

Please note: if you live outside of Louth, you will need access to your own vehicle as public transport in the area is very limited.

We are looking for someone who is:

• Warm, patient, and genuinely passionate about supporting others
• Positive, with a can-do attitude
• Reliable and flexible with availability
• Willing to attend training and develop in their role

This role might include supporting people with:

• Everyday tasks like cooking and cleaning
• Personal care and hygiene
• Finances and medication
• Getting out into the community for shopping, activities, and social events
• Encouraging independence and wellbeing in everything you do

Benefits

• Free DBS Check
• On-going development opportunities
• Flexible working and family friendly policies
