Job Description & How to Apply Below
From £12.77 per hour, depending on experience
Help someone get more from everyday life — from preparing a meal and building confidence to getting out into the community. OptiMatch Solutions is recruiting Support Workers for a care provider in Gloucester, supporting adults with dignity, choice and independence.
If you are dependable, patient and enjoy helping people do things for themselves, we would like to hear from you. Previous care or support-work experience is welcome, but is not essential.
The opportunity at a glance
- Permanent employment, with a provider-confirmed minimum contract of 12 hours per week.
- Contracted hours rather than bank or zero-hours work. The hours available for your placement and shift pattern must be agreed with the provider.
- Work across Gloucester and surrounding areas, including Hardwicke, Longlevens, Matson and Tuffley. Your specific work location will be agreed during recruitment.
- A full UK driving licence is required, but you do not need to own a vehicle.
What you will do
- Support daily routines and personal care where required, respecting each person’s preferences.
- Help with meals, appointments and community activities.
- Encourage confidence, everyday choices and independence.
- Follow individual care plans, keep clear records and report changes or concerns.
- Work reliably with colleagues and other professionals to provide consistent support.
What matters most
You bring patience, clear communication, sound judgement and a respectful approach. You can travel reliably within Gloucester, follow agreed procedures and complete the required pre-employment checks. Tell us about relevant care experience or transferable skills that show how you support others.
You must have the right to work in the UK. The employer cannot provide sponsorship for these opportunities.

Use the Apply Online Box below this advert to send an up-to-date CV. Tell us the days and hours you can work and your earliest start date, so we can assess the available working pattern with you.
Please also confirm whether you will require employer sponsorship now or at any point in the future, and whether you hold a full UK driving licence.
OptiMatch Solutions Ltd is acting as an employment agency for these permanent vacancies.
