We're one of the UK's largest health and social care charities, and we're proud to be pioneers in person-centred care. Our vision? Your Life, Your Choice. Our strategy? Best Lives Possible. And our vibe? Supportive, passionate, and always up for making a difference.

Whether you're new to care or a seasoned pro, we'll give you the tools, training, and TLC to thrive. Because when you go the extra mile for others, we go the extra mile for you.

Do you enjoy watching movies? Going out for dinner? Getting out for a nice walk? Going shopping? Or just relaxing in the garden? If you said yes, then you already have something in common with the amazing people we support in Edinburgh.

In Gilmerton, we support 4 ladies with learning disabilities and autism to live independently in their shared home. This is a supported living service, which means we're all about empowering the ladies to make their own choices, plan their days, and enjoy life to the fullest.

The people we support have unique personalities, interests, and goals. As a Support Worker, you'll help them:

• Get out into the community (if you have a driving license, that's a big bonus)
• Enjoy hobbies and activities
• Manage medication
• Provide personal care (where needed)
• Make decisions and live independently

We believe in "doing with" not "doing for" - it's all about enabling, not taking over.

We provide support 24/7, and we’re currently looking for people who can work shifts on a rota basis from 7am - 2pm and 2pm - 9pm. This will include some weekend work. We are currently recruiting for a 26 hour role and a 37.5 hour role.

If you're kind, patient, and passionate about helping others live their best lives, then we want to meet you!

For this particular role, a female colleague is required. This is a genuine occupational requirement as defined by the Equality Act 2010.

At Community Integrated Care, we know it takes someone special to work in social care—and that doesn’t always mean having experience. We hire based on values, welcoming people from all walks of life: seasoned Support Workers, Care Assistants, Veterans, those with lived experience, or even total newbies with a passion to care.
