Some exciting opportunities have arisen in our Learning Disabilities Day Service at Persona for casual support workers.

About you

Whilst previous experience isn't required, we are looking for someone who shares our values and you will be a person with a 'can-do' attitude.

You will have the ability to develop positive relationships with people and be passionate in supporting people to reach their potential.

You'll want to make a positive difference to people's lives and take pride in delivering high quality support.

You'll have a belief that people have a right to control and define their own lives regardless of disability and see your role as enabling them to do this, supporting them to engage in a wide range of activities and opportunities, both in our centres and as members of the wider community.

No one will meet every single desired qualification. If your experience looks a little different from what we're saying and you think you can bring value to the role, we'd love to learn more about you

About the role

You will be working alongside a team of staff in one of our Learning Disability Day Service bases in Bury, mainly covering for holidays and sickness.

The role is flexible, so you can decide when you work.

You will be supporting adults with learning and physical disabilities to do a variety of daytime activities that they choose, either in groups or on an individual basis.

This post is a physical job where you will move and position people, support people with personal care and help adults who use wheelchairs to manoeuvre both indoors and out in the community.

You will also support people to use public transport and to be active members of their local community, through activities such as swimming, voluntary work, dance sessions and sports.

Further information about the role can be found in the
job description**.

In return for your contribution we will support you throughout your career

We provide a wide range of
employee benefits, career development and lifestyle support services to ensure that you too feel supported, fulfilled and valued from day one of your employment with us.

Persona is committed to being an inclusive employer and recognises the value of having a diverse workforce that reflects the communities we serve.

Where possible, we will support employees to work flexibly or with adjustments, so that they can perform to their best ability.

We are committed to providing a working environment where all employees are treated with dignity and respect, and where individual skills and life experiences are valued.

Please note

Satisfactory disclosure at the appropriate level under the Disclosure and Barring Service is required prior to appointment.
