We are looking for a patient and caring person to join our wonderful team supporting 1 gentleman who lives independently in the rural area of Worlingworth.

You will be working in his home, so it’s important you can connect, share interests and be interested.

Experience with autism would be beneficial.

You should be available to work a variety of shifts, across the week, including alternate weekends and some sleep-in shifts as needed.

An essential part of this role is being a driver and having access to your own vehicle due to its rural location.

So, if you enjoy building meaningful relationships and think you could plan, communicate and deliver support with and alongside people, then this is the place for you.

Ability to commute/relocate: To IP13 - You must be able to reliably commute for shift start times or plan to relocate before starting work (required)

Affinity Trust does not presently hold a Sponsorship Licence and while this status is reviewed regularly there is no present proposal to apply for such a Licence

You will be entitled to annual leave and have the ability to buy additional leave.

Fully funded health cash plans giving you access to a 24 hour GP, money back on prescriptions, dental treatment, opticians and access to many more health benefits
