Are you the candidate we are looking for? At Shaftesbury Rowlands Gill we are recruiting for Enabling Support Workers.
Please note this role does not qualify for visa sponsorship, as the salary requirements set by the Home Office are not satisfied.
We're on the lookout for awesome people who bring passion, skills, and experience to the table. If you're all about making a difference and love being part of a community that cares, we'd love to have you on board.
At Shaftesbury, we're all about helping people live their best, most fulfilling lives. Everyone we support deserves top-notch care, and we're here to make that happen. Our values—being Open, Enabling, Inclusive, and Courageous—guide everything we do, and we're proud to make a real difference every day.
Our disability services for adults, children, and education are all about making everyone feel included and supported. We're all in on providing care that's professional, flexible, and tailored to each person. We genuinely love going the extra mile to help people grow, thrive, and enjoy life to the fullest.
About The Role

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.
Your day-to-day will include keeping accurate records (don't worry, we'll show you how) and sometimes helping out with personal care or medication. Plus, there's the chance to cover sleep-in shifts, and you'll earn an extra A GBP 60 per session for those.
This isn't just a job—it's a chance to be someone's biggest supporter and make a real impact. If this sounds like your kind of thing, we'd love to have you on board.
