Are you interested in working for an award winning social care charity?

Personal Assistants (Support Workers) have the most important role within Enable by making a positive difference every day to the lives of the people we support. No two days are the same for our Personal Assistants but what we can guarantee is that you will be supporting someone who requires support to achieve their goals and outcomes – whatever they may be!

Each person we support has different support requirements, so your role as Support Worker may include assisting them with various aspects of personal care, moving and handling or positive behavioural support whilst expanding their social networks and connections.

Enable creates a bespoke team around every individual we support, and our team of Personal Assistants work collaboratively to ensure the safety, wellbeing and aspirations of the people we support are met.

The Best in You Brings Out the Best in Me

The people we support have many varied interests and hobbies and have many of the same dreams and aspirations as we do; they just too often do not get the opportunity to experience these same opportunities. A career with Enable is as rewarding as it is diverse, Personal Assistants at their best have the potential to truly bring out the best in the people we support.

Let us introduceyou to Maureen:

Maureen lives in her own flat, and loves living in the village of Blackburn. A typical day could be going to the knitting or dancing group, then nipping to the shops. Maureen likes to go for a walk every day to keep fit, and loves the beautiful Dunecht Estate especially. In her downtime, Maureen loves to keep up the soaps on TV, and she is a whizz at the game shows too. Maureen receives support 7 days a week, from 09:00 - 17:00 an 17:00 to overnight with staff sleeping over. It is not always possible for Maureen to enjoy life's 'simple pleasures' in her community without proper, dedicated support.

That is why Maureen needs you! Will you bring your best so that Maureen can live herbest life?

If you think you share the same interests and have the commitment, dedication, and above all, desire to support Maureen to get the most out of life; then enable needs you and your values to help us create an equal society for every person we support.

You don't need experience in care to start your social care career with Enable . We recruit people based on their values and transferrable skills. Wherever your journey has taken you up until now, join us, and together we will forge a new path in what could potentially be the most rewarding role you have ever had!
