About Dimensions
At Dimensions, work is more than a job, it's a chance to make everyday matter. You'll join a team built on respect, courage, and partnership, where your ideas are valued and your wellbeing comes first. Recognised as a Great Place to Work for seven years, we'll support you with training, flexibility, and career development so you can thrive. Together, we'll create opportunities for people to live life their way and help you grow in ways that matter to you.
About the role
We're looking for a Female Support Worker to join our supported living home in Stanway, Colchester (CO3). This is a full-time role or a 30-hour contract, paying £12.64 per hour. A full UK driving licence is essential (manual preferred).
You'll support two women and one man to live independently and enjoy the things that make life meaningful. This is a lively, engaging home where no two days are the same. From baking, painting, and arts and crafts to swimming, bowling, cinema trips, and dance classes, you'll help bring ideas to life and make everyday matter. One person attends college and is preparing for work, another has a job and needs support getting to and from work, and the third enjoys daily social events at a local community centre.
You'll also support with personal care for the two women, including mobility assistance for one who walks with support, and medication for all three people. Communication is key, one-person benefits from Makaton (training provided), and you'll follow SALT plans for safe eating and drinking. You'll help with cooking, meal planning, shopping, and keeping the home running smoothly. Holidays are a big part of life here too, with one or two trips a year where you'll join in to make it all possible.
About you
You don't need experience, just the right attitude and a willingness to learn. You'll be caring, reliable, and ready to present new ideas in fun and exciting ways. Patience, clear communication, and flexibility are essential, along with a full UK driving licence. If you're passionate about making a real difference and helping people live life their way, we'd love to hear from you.
