Support Practitioner

Looking for a job where you can be yourself, feel valued and change lives, including your own? If you're a natural people person who enjoys helping others and making people smile, then we're looking for people like you to join our amazing #Team Crudenlea in Stonehaven. We've got full-time, part-time and relief
* female Support Practitioner roles available.

It's about so much more than care. It's about helping people live life their way, build confidence, try new things and enjoy the little moments.

You'll be part of a friendly, supportive team helping individuals with physical and learning disabilities to live their lives at home and in out and about in the community.

One day, you might be baking a cake, getting creative with arts and crafts or tending the garden. The next, you could be enjoying a day out, supporting someone's independence or sharing a laugh over a cuppa.

You don't need previous experience. If you're kind, compassionate and ready to learn, you're already half way there, we'll give you the training, encouragement and support you'll need to be a great Support Practitioner.

You're maybe looking for a fresh start, returning to work, changing careers or simply wanting a job that gives you more than just a payslip. Whatever your story, we're keen to hear from you!

• Kind, caring and compassionate
• Positive, approachable and happy to get involved
• Supportive team players who enjoy working with others
• Open to learning, growing and trying new things
• Ready to make a genuine difference
• Comfortable using computers and tablets

If this sounds like you, you could be just the person we're looking for!

At Cornerstone, we believe that looking after our team is just as important as supporting the people who rely on us.

Here's what you can look forward to:

• Meaningful work where you can see the difference you make every day
• Flexible opportunities with full-time, part-time and relief positions available
• No uniform — just wear your own comfortable, casual clothes
• Up to £500 towards driving lessons to help you get on the road
• Funded training and qualifications through our Training Academy
• Career development and progression to help you reach your potential

Our priority is making sure that the people we support receive consistent, high-quality support, so shifts will generally include early shifts and back shifts, with weekends, public holidays and sleepovers worked on a rotational basis.

Our sleepovers are separate from your contracted hours, so you’ll receive an additional payment of £107.60 for every sleepover you work - giving you the opportunity to earn extra alongside your contracted hours.
