Is 2026 your year to shine in a brand new rewarding job? We might have just the opportunity you're looking for!
Our fabulous #TeamLinkwood in Irvine are on the lookout for an understanding and patient new colleague with a good sense of humour to join them on a permanent part-time (30 hours per week) basis.
The Role
Our small, friendly and dedicated team provide 1:1 support for a gentleman who has learning and physical disabilities and is non-verbal. Your main aim will be to support this gentleman maintain his own tenancy and assist with all aspects of his daily living, including meal planning, cooking, medication, household tasks, finances and personal care.
This gentleman's life line is his mobility car, so we are looking for someone who has a full, clean manual driving licence with at least one year of experience on the roads. Most days you will find yourself out for drives as the gentleman loves people watching and exploring new places. He also really enjoys a variety of sensory activities going to the local disco every Sunday.

A caring and compassionate attitude and approach
The ability to work well in a team and on your own initiative
Confidence to go in the water as swimming is a regular activity
Great communication skills
A positive attitude with a willingness to learn
Confidence in the use of computers
A full driving licence with a minimum of 1 years' experience on the roads
Shift Patterns
As we're dedicated to providing the best round the clock support possible, shift patterns fall into day (0845-2100 hours) and waking night (2045-0900 hours) shifts. Waking nights would be worked on a rotational basis and are paid at your normal hourly rate, plus an additional payment per night.
