Support People to Live the Life They Choose
Are you looking for a rewarding career where you can make a genuine difference every day?
Capability Scotland is currently recruiting Community Living Assistants (Support Workers) to support adults with disabilities to live independently within their own homes and communities.
Most of our current vacancies are based in Renfrewshire, with a small number of opportunities available across Glasgow. Exact locations will be discussed during the recruitment process.

Responsibilities include:
- Providing personal care with dignity and respect
- Supporting medication routines
- Assisting with meal preparation and daily living activities
- Supporting people to maintain their homes and tenancies
- Encouraging independence, communication and choice
- Accompanying people to appointments, education and social activities
- Supporting community participation, hobbies and interests
- Delivering one-to-one or two-to-one support based on individual needs
Every day is different, but your focus will always be promoting independence, inclusion, dignity and wellbeing.

- Are caring, compassionate and committed to helping others
