❤ Support Worker – Change Lives, Including Your Own! ❤
East Devon | Full-time, Part-time, Bank & Casual | £12.85 - £13.50/hr
❤Tired of boring jobs and beige workplaces? We get it. The care sector is full of “meh” adverts asking for “dedicated” staff to do “challenging but rewarding” work. Snooze.
Tailored Care and Nurture Ltd is not that kind of place.
We’re bold, fun, human, and we’re on a mission to bring heart and soul back into care. If you’re full of compassion, got some sass, and can show up with your whole self every day — we want YOU.
❤ Who We Are: We’re a small but mighty care company supporting young adults with learning disabilities in cosy, family-style homes across East Devon (including Newton Poppleford). Our homes are filled with laughter, encouragement, and the belief that everyone — residents and staff — deserves to live their best life.
We’re not just about ‘care’, we’re about empowerment.
❤ What You’ll Be Doing (a.k.a. Changing Lives):
You’ll work 1:1 or 2:1 with amazing young people aged 17–50 to help them build confidence, independence, and real-life skills like:
- Shopping, budgeting & meal planning ❤
- Getting back into education or starting work ❤
- Tackling anxiety & growing self-belief ❤
- Enjoying activities in the community ❤
- Building trust, friendships & positive routines ❤
No personal care involved for some placements — just company, kindness, and emotional support with a bit of administration and household tasks thrown in!
❤ Why Work With Us? We actually walk the walk when it comes to valuing staff. You’ll get:
- ❤ Up to £13.50/hr (based on experience & qualifications)
- ❤ Paid day off on your birthday – go eat cake, on us!
- ❤ Annual anniversary gift – because you matter.
- ❤ Induction, paid training & nationally recognised qualifications
- ❤ Clear paths to promotion – grow with us.
- ❤ Casual dress code – no scrubs here!
- ❤ Employee Assistance Programme – for life’s tough bits.
- ❤ Good Attendance Bonus
- ❤ Be part of a true work family
- ❤ Contractual hours = job security
And yes, there’s a Refer-a-Friend Scheme (because good people know good people).
