Job Description
Join Lifeways – Where Every Day Makes a Difference
Support Worker – March | Full-Time & Part-Time
Are you looking for a career where you’re valued, supported, and can truly make an impact? At Lifeways, we’re proud to be the UK’s largest provider of supported living services, helping people with autism, learning disabilities, and complex needs live more independently and meaningfully.
We’re looking for Support Workers to join our passionate team at Rectory Drive in March. Whether you’re experienced or just starting out, if you care deeply about others and want to make a difference in your community, we’ll be with you every step of the way.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Supporting individuals to live independently and achieve personal goals
- Promoting choice, dignity, and respect in everyday life
- Working as part of a close-knit, supportive team
- Driving company vehicles to support individuals in the community (Full UK Driving Licence preferred)
At Rectory Drive, the people we support are non-verbal with autism, physical disabilities, and complex neurological conditions. The home is designed to suit different personalities, with both quiet and lively spaces. People enjoy activities like driving, walking in open spaces, bowling, swimming, cooking, and holidays — and you’ll be part of making those moments happen.
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.
