Are you a night owl? Do you work best through the evening? If so, we may have the role for you!
Our resilient adult services programme is recruiting for a Female Support Worker to join our Waking Night team working in Southbourne on a part-time basis.
Make sure to apply with all the requested information, as laid out in the job overview below.
Due to the nature of the people we support, we can only accept applications from candidates who have a strong background in health and social care, along with experience of autism or complex care.
Please note, Autism Unlimited does not provide visa sponsorship.
The Role
Our purpose in adult services is to empower the people we support to live as independently as possible and see them thrive. Each person we help has their own unique way of communicating, whether this be PECs boards, signalong or through repeating specific phrases. If you’ve not used signalong previously, don't worry as training is provided!
At the heart of everything we do is promoting the independence of the people we support, and ensuring we have a relaxed, empathetic and encouraging team working with us to help ensure they achieve their goals.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
