  • Work one-to-one with individuals from a variety of backgrounds in their own homes and in the community.

  • Support people with a wide range of mental health needs, empowering them to regain and maintain their roles in society.

  • Deliver flexible, person-centred support based on individual care plans.

  • Be a trusted advocate, supporting people in making their voices heard.

  • Participate in multi-disciplinary meetings and contribute to effective team working.

  • Manage your own caseload and work autonomously with the support of your manager and colleagues.

What We’re Looking For:
We’re seeking someone who:

  • Has experience with mental health services – whether as a worker, volunteer, service user or carer.

  • Is empathetic, calm under pressure, and confident in responding to challenging situations.

  • Can work independently, flexibly, and has great communication skills.

  • Is committed to promoting inclusion, equality, and the recovery of individuals.

  • Holds a full UK driving licence and has access to a suitable vehicle.

Why Join Us?
