About The Role
We’re looking for caring, positive people to join our team at Ryde Village for 25 hours per week and help us provide personalised, high quality support to the residents and individuals who use our services. You’ll be working with a diverse group of people, including older adults, individuals with learning disabilities or autism, people with mental health needs and those with more complex support requirements.
As a Care & Support Worker, you’ll be part of a supportive team delivering care across our supported housing schemes, extra care services and within the local community. You’ll provide care and support in line with individual care plans, helping people to live as independently as possible while promoting dignity, choice and inclusion.
This is a hands on role that requires flexibility. You’ll be expected to work evenings and weekends where required and may undertake sleep in duties or take part in an on call rota. The role also involves physically demanding tasks, including moving and handling, and responding calmly in emergency situations.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
