Brand New service set in Cardiff - Female drivers needed
We have an exciting opportunity for a Support worker to join our dedicated team in Cardiff. We are looking for friendly, enthusiastic and person-centred Support Workers to join our new supported living service and support two fantastic young ladies to live life to the fullest. Both ladies are very active and outgoing and enjoy going to the gym, swimming, spending time with family and getting out and about in the community. One lady is 27 and enjoys the independence of having her own job. The other is 23 and thrives with a busy timetable of activities. We are looking for staff who will support their individual interests, encourage independence, build positive relationships and help them enjoy a fulfilling and active lifestyle. If you are caring, patient, energetic and passionate about supporting people to achieve their goals, we would love to hear from you.
About Mirus:
For 40 years, we have provided support so people can do the things they love, achieve their goals, and live good lives - always with voice, choice, and control.
We support people with learning disabilities, mental ill-health, and autistic people. Our services are shaped by the people who use them - we listen to and value each person's unique voice and experiences, creating an environment where everyone feels heard and understood.
We know that people have better lives when they feel part of their community - and the community benefits too! That's why we work with others to build networks that encourage people to explore opportunities, discover new interests, develop relationships, and enhance their independence.
Everything we do is guided by our values: Together, Respectful, Responsible, Empowering, and Courageous.
