Carr Gomm is one of Scotland’s leading social care organisations. Everything we do is shaped by our core values of choice, control, interdependence, openness & honesty, and respect. We are a registered charity and not-for-profit company: we put people first.
We are recruiting for Support Practitioners to join our established teams in Dundee.
If you’re good at seeing people as unique individuals with their own skills, opinions, and dreams then we currently have a variety of part time (from 22.5 hours) and full-time opportunities for you to join our teams in Dundee.
As a Support Practitioner you will support people with all aspects of daily living at home and in their communities. You will assist people with planning for their future and to prevent the effects of social isolation and loneliness in their lives. We adopt a person-centred approach to working with individuals who require support for a variety of reasons including mental health needs, autism, physical & learning disabilities.
Whilst experience is always welcome, full training (including SVQ qualifications) is provided alongside regular support and supervision from your Service Manager. The right values and motivation are essential; honesty, respect, empathy and compassion are key skills that are required in people who join our teams.
We are looking for candidates who are flexible to work a variety of shift patterns which can include days, evenings/weekends and overnights.
We welcome applications from any candidates already eligible to work in the UK or those that can apply for a visa granting permission to work in the UK (e.g. dependent visas, ancestry etc.) that do not require sponsorship from Carr Gomm. You will be asked to share proof of this prior to receiving any offer of employment. It is currently our policy not to offer sponsorship for prospective candidates.
As a way of demonstrating how much we value you and your commitment we offer a range of great benefits:
