Support Worker, Home Care

Join Our Person-Centred Support Team in Leeds
Empowering individuals to live life their way. Are you a caring, compassionate person looking for a rewarding career where you can make a real difference every day? At Active Care in the Home
, we're proud to be one of the UK's leading providers of complex care and right now, we're looking for an attentive Female Support Worker to join our client's support team.

We are supporting a lovely lady with cerebral palsy who lives at home with her husband. She has a small, established care team, and her husband provides overnight support while also working part-time. We're looking for an additional team member to join them, helping to deliver consistent, high-quality care and giving her husband some well-deserved respite. Communication is an important part of her support.

She relies mainly on non-verbal cues, so this role would suit someone patient, attentive, and naturally compassionate someone who will take the time to build trust and really get to know her. You'll be working alongside two long-standing carers who know her well and provide excellent continuity. She enjoys getting out and about each day for a coffee, a browse around the shops, or simply some relaxed people-watching, so being a confident driver is essential.

She also appreciates support with the day-to-day running of her home. She's easy-going, enjoys a good laugh, and loves spending time with her two cats in her garden catio, which is one of her favourite places to unwind.

As a one to one Support Worker role
, you'll play a key role in providing high-quality, person-centred care in our client's own home. You'll help to ensure care is consistent, safe, and tailored to the client's needs and preferences. Everyday is different from supporting with personal care, light household chores to driving our client on trips out in the community.

• Part-time starting at 16 hours per week, with a mix of shifts. Monday - Friday: 9am-4pm, 4pm-10pm. Saturday and Sunday: 11am-7pm. Rolling rota will be in place. Flexibility is key to supporting the client's lifestyle.

• Compassionate, reliable, and proactive individual.
• Confident driver (essential you'll be driving the client's vehicle).
• Great communication.
• Passion for empowering others to live independently.

(For genuine occupational requirements, we are seeking female candidates for this client.)

• Pay from £12.25 up to £13.50 per hour (depending on experience and qualifications).
• Flexible zero-hour contract.
