Description
Twenty Four-Seven has been supporting people to develop their independent living skills since 2001.

We are committed to providing high quality, person centred services that promote the independence, choice, wellbeing and inclusion of the people we support.

We have an excellent track-record for the delivery of services which are designed to assess and develop independent living at the same time as being truly flexible and personalised.

Due to expansion of the service, this is an exciting opportunity to join our growing Supported Living Team in Barnsley (S70 or S36 areas) to work with:

  • Young people (often care leavers aged 16+) preparing for independence
  • Young people and young adults with learning disabilities, preparing for independence


We are looking for motivated and enthusiastic full and part time Support Workers, with excellent people skills, to join our team.

It is essential that you can be a positive role model and share our values of being respectful and professional, having integrity, being quality driven and supportive.


Ideally you will have 2 years relevant experience in a Support Worker role with different service user groups, along with an associated Level 3 Qualification, OR you will have the ability to demonstrate transferrable skills, knowledge and experience appropriate to the role.


The role involves working eight hour shifts, on a rota basis, with some sleep-in's (for which additional payment is made) and alternate weekends.


The roles will be based at one of our existing provisions in Barnsley, and so a current driving licence and use of a car is desirable, but not essential, as all sites are easily accessed via public transport.

Successful applicants will require a satisfactory enhanced DBS disclosure (which we will pay for).
