Make a Real Impact Every Day

Join Lifeways at Burnham Court, Burnley, where your support helps adults live more independently and confidently.

Every day, your work will make a meaningful difference.

What You’ll Do

  • Deliver person-centred support in daily living activities

This is a full-time role with 37.5 contracted hours per week, scheduled between 8:00am and 10:00pm, Monday to Sunday. A variety of shift lengths are available to suit both service needs and team preferences, including 7-hour, 8-hour, 10-hour, 12-hour, and 14-hour shifts.

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.
