Our amazing #TeamTeindland in Elgin are looking for new caring, outgoing and sociable *female colleagues to join them on a part-time (25 hours per week) basis.

You don't need experience in care as a Support Practitioner or qualifications to start your career with us; we recruit on values and transferrable skills.

We'll pay you for your training and give you all the practical skills you'll need. We'll even fund your SVQ (SCQF level 6/7) qualification and yearly SSSC registration fees too

The Role

You'll become part of a friendly, warm team who supports two fun loving ladies to live in their own shared home.

The great thing about this job is no two days are ever the same.

Your main aim will be supporting both ladies with their day to day needs which involves personal care, shopping, finances, cooking, housework and medication.

With the ladies also enjoying being part of their local community, you'll also be supporting and participating in their hobbies and interests which include, swimming, going to the cinema, singing, music, arts & crafts and gardening.

All we'll need you to bring is: -

Good listening and communication skills
A caring attitude and approach
Confidence to go in the water as swimming is a regular activity
A positive approach to learning
The ability to cook
Confidence in the use of computers.

Shift Patterns

We're dedicated to providing around the clock support that is tailored to the needs of each individual, so shift patterns will include early mornings, days, evenings, weekends, public holidays and sleepovers.

Typically you will work a minimum of 4 sleepover shifts each month.

Our sleepover shifts are not included in your contracted hours, so you will receive
an additional payment of £87 for every sleepover you work.

If you're successful in joining our team, we will need you to register with the SSSC within 3 months of starting your employment with us.
