We're now on the look out for a new future star, so if you're looking for a new job for 2026 that will being satisfaction like no other, look no further as we have a great opportunity to join our fantastic #TeamKeswick in Dundee as a Support Practitioner on a part-time (24 hours per week), permanent basis.
The team and the individuals you'll support
You'll become part of a warm, friendly and dedicated team who supports two fun loving ladies with profound learning and physical disabilities who live in their own shared home. The great thing about this job is no two days are ever the same.
Your main aim will be supporting each of the ladies with their day to day needs, including personal care, shopping, finances, cooking, housework and medication.
You'll also provide support with their hobbies and interests too, including music, films, in-house activities, baking, going for walks and arts & crafts. As both ladies love to get out and be part of their local community you’ll also find yourself getting involved in activities like going to the cinema, discos, going for walks and day trips too.
As both ladies have their own mobility cars, we are ideally looking for drivers, however this isn't a deal breaker for the right candidate.

A caring and compassionate attitude
The ability to work well in a team
Great communication and organisational skills
A positive attitude with a willingness to learn
A creative drive to improve the lives of the individuals you support

Shift Patterns

Waking nights are paid at your normal hourly rate plus and additional payment of £20 per night.
