    Description
    The Maximising Independence Service (MIS) is focused on early resolution, prevention and promoting independence and wellbeing.

    The aim of the service is to help people to maximise their independence as much as possible by providing information, advice and guidance, setting short-term goals and identifying support to achieve those goals.

    Signposting to community support.
    Take pride in the quality of the work we do.
    We are looking for dynamic and creative individuals who really want to make a difference to people's lives.

    This might be anything from teaching people to use public transport or finding social activities in the community, or learning to cook.

    These vacancies are two full-time and one part-time position in the North team (Newark, Sherwood and Bassetlaw) and one full-time post in the Mid team (Mansfield and Ashfield).

    Due to the nature of the work and the areas that we cover, a driving licence and access to a vehicle is essential for this role (unless disability precludes this).

    You will spend most of your week working out in the community or in people's homes.

    We would welcome applications from anyone who has the relevant experience and wishes to embark on a career in social care.

    In return, you will receive ongoing training and coaching, regular supervision, annual development appraisals, alongside the support of a motivated and friendly team.

    You will be provided with appropriate technology and access to work remotely.
