Job Description
Join Lifeways in Southampton – You're not just anyone.

  • Shift Pattern: 10am–10pm with sleep-ins
  • Pay Rate: £13.45 per hour

Are you ready to turn compassion into a career? At Lifeways, we don’t just offer jobs—we offer purpose. As one of the UK’s leading providers of specialist support services, we’re on the lookout for Recovery Support Workers who are ready to make a real impact in their local community.

Whether you're looking for bank or full-time work, this is your chance to be part of something bigger. You’ll support adults living with complex mental health conditions, helping them build independence, confidence, and brighter futures.

What You'll Be Doing

No two days are the same—and that’s the beauty of it. You’ll be:

  • Supporting individuals with conditions like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, autism, and substance misuse
  • Helping with medication, appointments, budgeting, and daily living skills
  • Encouraging community engagement through college, volunteering, and creative activities
  • Creating recovery plans and maintaining high standards of documentation
  • Being a consistent, calming presence in a dynamic environment

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.
