Are you currently looking for a new part-time job that will bring satisfaction like no other?
Look no further as we have some great opportunities to join our fantastic #TeamMoray in Elgin as Support Practitioners on a part-time (20, 25 or 30 hours per week), permanent basis.
The role
At Cornerstone, everything we do is centred around supporting individuals to live the life they choose. We work alongside the people we support to help them identify their goals and develop personalised support plans that reflect their choices, needs and abilities.
As a Support Practitioner, you’ll help individuals manage their own homes, build, maintain and increase their independence, and support them with their personal care, as well as their social, health and wellbeing needs.
No two days are the same. The people we support all have their own personal hobbies, interests and aspirations, so we’re looking for someone who can bring creativity, enthusiasm and a positive attitude. You’ll support individuals to take part in meaningful activities, enjoy their hobbies and access opportunities both at home and within their local communities.
Being a Support Practitioner is more than just a job, it’s a rewarding career where you can go home each day knowing you’ve made a genuine difference in someone’s life.
About You
You don’t need previous experience in care or formal qualifications to join us, what matters most is who you are as a person. If you’re compassionate, reliable and committed, we’ll provide everything else including:
