Join Our Team

About the Role

Busydays Daycare is looking to recruit Bank Support Workers to join our team, providing additional cover during periods of staff sickness, annual leave and other absences.

The purpose of the role is to provide high-quality support and care to clients attending our day service, promoting independence, dignity, choice and wellbeing at all times.

This is a flexible, zero-hours opportunity. Shifts will be offered as and when required, and you will be free to accept or decline individual shifts depending on your availability. Once a shift has been accepted, we expect you to fulfil that commitment.

Key Responsibilities

• Support clients with daily activities and individual support plans.

• Assist clients with personal care needs in a respectful and dignified manner.

• Provide support with medication in line with organisational policies and training.

• Encourage independence, confidence and social inclusion.

• Assist clients to participate in activities and community-based opportunities.

• Maintain accurate records and reports as required.

• Support clients with financial transactions or budgeting where appropriate and authorised.

• Ensure the safety and wellbeing of clients at all times.

• Follow organisational policies and procedures, maintaining professional boundaries and treating all clients with respect, dignity and compassion.

• Work effectively as part of a team, communicating appropriately with colleagues, families and external professionals.

• Attend relevant training, supervision and team meetings.

• Report concerns, incidents or safeguarding issues promptly to management.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who has:

• A caring, patient and compassionate nature.

• Good communication and interpersonal skills.

• The ability to work effectively as part of a team.

• A reliable and flexible approach to work.

• A commitment to maintaining confidentiality.

• An understanding of dignity, respect and person-centred support.

Previous experience in a support worker or care role would be beneficial, as would knowledge of safeguarding procedures, medication training or a relevant health and social care qualification. However, these are not essential.

What We Offer

• A highly competitive hourly rate of £14.50.

• Flexible working arrangements, with no guaranteed minimum hours.

• The opportunity to work alongside a friendly and supportive team.

• Access to relevant training and development.

• An opportunity to make a meaningful difference to the lives of adults with learning disabilities.

Additional Information

Busydays Daycare is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of the people we support. An enhanced DBS check and appropriate pre-employment checks will be required.
