About the Role
The role provides support across three services in Gloucestershire and involves a blend of 1:1 support and shared support. Support needs vary between individuals – some require minimal assistance such as help with medication administration, while others need full 1:1 support throughout the day. This includes promoting engagement, developing day‑to‑day living skills, and supporting individuals to participate in meaningful activities.
The primary support needs within these services relate to Mental Health, with additional needs that may include Autism, Learning Disabilities, substance‑related challenges, and mobility difficulties.

- Comprehensive in‑house induction and ongoing specialist training
- Career progression and development opportunities
- Access to Vivup employee benefits

We welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds and believe that diversity strengthens our team. We value individuality, inclusivity, and a culture where everyone can thrive.
We are dedicated to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of adults with care and support needs, and we expect all staff and volunteers to uphold this commitment with the highest standards of care and professionalism.
For this specific role, the person we support has a genuine occupational requirement for Female Senior Support Workers only, as permitted under the Equality Act 2010. This requirement relates solely to the personal care needs of the individual and does not affect our wider commitment to equality and inclusion.
