Day & Wake Night Support Worker

Make a Difference That Matters – Become a Support Worker!

Tamworth | Up to £14.50 per hour | Contracted Hours Available

Looking for a rewarding role where no two days are quite the same?

At Active Assistance, we're looking for caring, enthusiastic and dependable Support Workers to join a dedicated team supporting a sociable and independent gentleman with a spinal cord injury in his own home in Tamworth.

This is an opportunity to build a genuine connection with someone, getting to know his personality, interests and routines while providing support that puts his choices and independence first. It's about more than meeting care needs – it's about helping him enjoy the things he loves, make his own decisions and live life to the fullest.

A Role With Plenty of Variety

Our client enjoys an active lifestyle and making the most of new experiences. From getting out and about in the local community to attending appointments and enjoying family holidays and adventures, you'll be there to provide support along the way.

Travel and accommodation are fully covered when accompanying the family on holidays!

You'll become an important part of a friendly, close-knit 2:1 support team, working together to deliver consistent, high-quality, person-centred care. With regular shifts and rotas planned in advance, you'll have the opportunity to build a rewarding working relationship while enjoying greater predictability in your own schedule.

What Will You Be Doing?

• Providing personal care and medication support as part of a 2:1 team.
• Supporting with moving and handling and the use of specialist clinical equipment.
• Driving your client to appointments, social activities and days out.
• Accompanying your client on family holidays and trips, helping him enjoy new experiences.
• Encouraging independence, respecting individual choices and supporting everyday routines.
• Building a positive, trusting relationship through compassionate and consistent support.

Are You the Right Person?

We're looking for someone who is:

• Naturally caring, patient and approachable, with a positive attitude.
• Reliable and committed to providing high-quality, person-centred support.
• A good communicator who enjoys working as part of a team.
• Flexible and able to offer regular availability to maintain continuity of care.
• A confident driver with a full, clean UK driving licence (international licences cannot be accepted due to insurance requirements).

Previous care experience is welcome, but having the right attitude, values and willingness to learn is just as important.

What We Can Offer You

• Competitive pay: Up to £14.50 per hour, depending on experience.
• Contracted hours available
• Additional holiday pay: 14.07% paid on every hour worked.
• 12-hour shifts: Two or more shifts per week, offering a consistent working pattern.
• Specialist training, shadow shifts and ongoing support from your Care Manager.
• Opportunities to accompany your client on family holidays, with travel and accommodation covered.
• Nest pension.
• Recognition awards celebrating your contribution.
• Refer a Friend Scheme – earn up to £1,500.
• Opportunities for career development within one of the UK's leading complex care providers.

At Active Assistance, we want everyone to feel welcome and supported. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences. If you need any reasonable adjustments during the recruitment or interview process, just let us know and we’ll be very happy to discuss this with you.
