    Job Title: Support Worker - Post 16

    We are seeking a compassionate Support Worker to join our team at Fair Ways, a leading provider of Supported Living homes in Southampton. As a Support Worker, you will be involved in making a meaningful impact on the lives of young adults and empowering them to navigate the path towards independence and success.

    About Us

    Fair Ways is a great place to work. We are a team that cares about each other and is committed to making a change to the lives of the young people, children, and families in our care. Our staff are at the core of our organisation, and we celebrate them by shouting it from the rooftops.

    The Role

    As a Support Worker for Fair Ways Supported Living, you will be involved in exciting and rewarding things such as:

    • Rewarding Connections: Utilise your excellent communication skills to understand and connect with young individuals. Collaborate closely with our team to address significant issues and provide the support they need to thrive.
    • Inspire Growth: Go beyond surface behaviours and make a real difference in their lives. Use a variety of approaches, including social life skills, therapeutic activities, and effective role modelling, to guide and mentor young adults.
    • Supportive Team: Join our amazing team of dedicated professionals who share a common goal of caring for and supporting each resident. Together, we create a nurturing environment where young people can flourish.
    • Individualised Care: Be at the heart of their care plans, focusing on their personal development and well-being. Offer guidance and support in areas such as nutrition, medical needs, hygiene, and help them explore work placements, education, and personal interests.
    • Foster Independence: Empower our residents to become more self-reliant by supporting them in daily tasks within a home setting. Be a catalyst for their growth, helping them transition into independent living.
    • Collaborate and Organise: Act as a key worker, liaising with professionals and external agencies to ensure comprehensive support. Manage administrative tasks efficiently, including accurate record-keeping and reporting.

    Expectations and Requirements

    We expect the following:

    • Rota Pattern: Enjoy a weekly rota pattern of 37.5 hours, comprising of early shifts, late shifts, and up to 2 sleep-in shifts per week. This flexible schedule allows for a healthy work-life balance.
    • Experience Requirements: While experience and qualifications are valued, we believe in the potential of individuals from diverse backgrounds. You will be supported to undertake your Level 3 qualification to ensure that the quality of support remains high across the service. If you have a passion for supporting young people, we encourage you to apply.
    • Driving License: A full driving license and access to a car are essential for this role. You'll have the opportunity to positively impact the lives of residents by providing transportation and support as needed.
    • Enhanced DBS - Successful candidates will be required to complete an enhanced Disclosure (DBS). This disclosure cost will be met by Fair Ways and ensures we can meet our safer recruitment regulations and keep our young people safe.

    Benefits

    We offer a range of benefits to our dedicated team, including:

    • Exciting Opportunities: Participate in free staff lotteries with amazing prizes, such as £1000 holiday vouchers, weekends away, luxury hampers, £1000 fostering referral scheme and vouchers.
    • Work-Life Balance: Enjoy a Holiday Accrual Scheme, an extra day of annual leave as a 'wellbeing day' and the option to purchase additional holidays (up to 5 days).
    • Health and Support: Benefit from Simply Health, our health cash plan, and access to our Employee Assistance Scheme, providing emergency financial assistance and 24/7 counselling services.
    • Growth and Development: Unlock your potential with our Education Grant, offering funding for accreditation up to master's level. Engage in leadership courses to enhance your skills and progress in your career.
    • Wellbeing Matters: Experience team-building days, summer festivals, and well-being initiatives, promoting a positive work environment. Take advantage of discounted gym memberships and a cycle-to-work scheme to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
    • Recognition and Rewards: Be appreciated for your dedication through annual Staff Awards and Long Service Awards. Build a secure future with our pension scheme and gain eligibility for a Blue Light Card.
