As an Activities Coordinator you will provide stimulating and meaningful activities for our residents. You will tailor these activities, taking into account individual skills, hobbies and interests, aiming to improve the quality of life, whilst promoting and upholding our resident’s privacy, dignity and independence at all times.
Your role is to create a happy and caring atmosphere; putting residents' needs first, providing a wide range of physical, social, emotional and psychological activities tailored to the individual. We respect differences and recognise our staff and residents will have different needs.
This is a varied role which may include you accompanying residents to the local country fair, leading a chair exercise class, reminiscing with a resident about their childhood holidays, or doing arts and crafts.
No previous experience is required for this role as we will provide full training. This role would be suited to you if you enjoy leading and organising activities, are organised, sociable, and love bringing people together.
We do require you to demonstrate a flexible, hard-working and caring attitude, with a desire to work as part of a dedicated team, showing care and compassion at all times.
Not only is this a great role and a fantastic team to work in, with fair and competitive pay, but we also offer a variety of other financial and non-financial benefits to support you at work, including opportunities for paid training and development throughout your career.
