Job Description
Are you looking for an empowering and rewarding career where you can help people to lead their most independent lives?
The Lifeways Group in Cramlington are currently looking to expand their fantastic team of Support Workers in our local supported living services.
At Emery Court bungalows and apartments, people benefit from a vibrant network of staff and friends, while having peace and quiet when they need it too.
The property has ten apartments, each with an open-plan kitchen and living room, a bathroom with a shower cubicle, and a bedroom that is accessed by a set of stairs. There is an additional apartment which has an open-plan kitchen and living room, a bathroom with a shower cubicle, two bedrooms and no internal stairs.
Emery Court also has two bungalows onsite, each with one bedroom, an open-plan kitchen and living room and a bathroom.
There is a small area with grass for people to spend time relaxing outside when the weather is good. Assistive technology can be tailored to suit the needs of each person and includes an intercom, CCTV and a Tunstall connected care system.
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.
You’ll either be an enthusiastic person with plenty of patience looking for a career change to bring new life and experiences into our service or you’ll be an experienced Support Worker with a background in complex emotional or behavioural settings looking for a change and wanting to be part of a team that will make a difference to two young people with complex needs to give them new opportunities in their life both at home and in the community.
You’ll get a fully paid induction with ongoing training and support from a dedicated Manager plus the opportunity to undertake a qualification in health and social care funded by Lifeways Group plus so much more when you join.
We work within the principles of person-centred support, enabling development and inclusion in their everyday lives within their home and wider community. Each service user has their own self-contained room within the service buildings and your work will be varied as you’ll be supporting with all sorts of activities including swimming, shopping, going for a coffee, going to the cinema, visiting museums and clubs.
