  • Maintain professional and respectful communication with his parents, who are actively involved in his care.

  • Promote safety, dignity, and emotional wellbeing at all times.

Essential Requirements:

  • Epilepsy training (must be current and evidenced).

  • Experience supporting individuals with Autism, minimal communication, and challenging behaviour.

  • Behavioural training such as PMVA, PBM, or equivalent.

  • Ability to work as part of a 2:1 support team.

  • Strong understanding of safeguarding, personal care, and risk management.

  • Driver preferred due to location and flexibility needs.

Skills & Attributes:

  • Calm, patient, and emotionally resilient.

  • Skilled in de-escalation and positive behaviour support.

  • Respectful of family dynamics and professional boundaries.

  • Able to follow detailed care plans and maintain accurate records.

  • Comfortable with flexible working patterns including day and night shifts.

Benefits:

  • Competitive hourly rate of £13.75

  • Flexible working arrangements

  • Supportive team environment

  • Opportunity to make a meaningful impact in a specialist care setting
