We're now on the look out for our 2026 future stars! Our #TeamNLCumbernauld are on the lookout for respectful, patient and understanding individuals with great attention to detail to join their team as Support Practitioners on a permanent part-time basis.
This role will be covering Cumbernauld area of North Lanarkshire where you'll be supporting young people in community settings and older people in their own homes.
The Role and the people you will support

With a focus on building and maintaining independence, you’ll take an active part in helping support a daily routine to help pursue their hobbies. The people we support enjoy a busy social life and love getting involved in their community going swimming, bowling and out to the cinema. They also attend art therapy and exercise glasses with a keen interest in video gaming!
For this role, we will need you to have a full UK manual drivers licence with one years experience on the roads.
