About the role
We're looking for a patient, compassionate and adaptable Female Support Worker to join our team in Malmesbury (SN16), supporting a brother and sister in their 50s with Down's syndrome and learning disabilities. This is a highly personalised 1:1 home, where understanding each person's individuality is key. The lady is outgoing, vibrant and loves holidays, especially trips to Butlin's. Her brother prefers quieter environments, enjoys trains and public transport, and thrives with calm, consistent support. One of his most memorable experiences was a holiday focused around his love of steam trains.
You’ll support with personal care, medication, meal preparation and healthy eating. The gentleman also requires support with diet management and portion control. Some behaviours of distress may occur, but full training and ongoing support will be provided. This is a role where small moments, patience and genuine connection can make a huge difference.
Shifts:
- 9:00am - 3:00pm
- 9:00am - 5:00pm
- Evening + sleep-in: 5:00pm - 9:00am (following day)
- Sleep-ins: 10:00pm - 7:00am (£50 paid to sleep)
Rotas are provided in advance to support a healthy work-life balance.
About you
You'll be a great fit if you're:
- Calm, patient and reassuring
- Able to adapt your approach to different personalities and needs
- Friendly, respectful and person-centred
- Confident building trusting relationships
- Firm but fair when supporting routines and boundaries
- Comfortable supporting personal care and medication
- Someone who enjoys creating a warm, homely atmosphere
- A driver with a full UK licence (auto-friendly)
Experience is helpful but not essential — we'll provide all the training and support you need to succeed.
