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

Personal Assistants (Support Workers) have the most important role within Enableby 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.

Help transform lives like R's.

My name is R and I am 14 years old. I am autistic and have a learning disability, and I love to get out and about and be active. I love trampolines and swing parks, going on the bus, and walks along the beach. I sometimes struggle to communicate my needs in a way that other people understand. If you are supporting me, I need you to be fun-loving and understanding of my needs, and help me be safe in the community.

I really look forward to a few hours of fun after school every week!

Muirfield Outreach is based in Kilwinning, and we provide community support to children and young people across North Ayrshire and East Ayrshire. We make sure the young people who use the service have lots of fun and look forward to their support time!

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!
