Full job description

As a Support Worker in our Transition Service, you will play a key role in supporting young adults as they take their first steps into life after school, building confidence, independence and real community connections.

This is a community-based role supporting school leavers, typically aged 16 to early 20s, as they move into adulthood. You will support them to get out and about, try new things, build routines and develop the skills they need for the next stage of their lives. This role is worked Monday to Friday, providing consistency at an important stage of transition.

What your day will look like

Supporting small groups of young adults out in the community, including things like trampolining, going for coffee, the gym or trying new activities
Helping individuals build confidence, independence and social skills
Encouraging people to take part in things they enjoy and feel comfortable with
Supporting people to manage changes in routine and new experiences
Working both as part of a team and at times on a one-to-one basis
Supporting individuals with distressed or challenging behaviour in a calm and respectful way
Building positive relationships and creating a safe, supportive environment
Keeping accurate records and contributing to support planning

About you

This role could be right for you if you are reliable, patient and genuinely motivated to support young people at an important stage in their lives. Experience working with young adults, particularly those aged 16 to early 20s, or supporting people with challenging behaviour would be helpful, but it is not essential. We are open to people who bring the right values and are willing to learn.

You are confident working in the community, can use your initiative, and are comfortable supporting individuals both in small groups and on a one-to-one basis. You understand that every person is different and are committed to delivering support that is person centred and respectful.

You will be required to join the PVG Scheme and register with the SSSC.

What we offer

A supportive team environment where you are not left to figure things out alone
Ongoing training and development
The opportunity to build meaningful relationships and see real progress
A structured working pattern, Monday to Friday

If you want a role where you can support young people to build confidence, independence and a life beyond school, we would welcome your application.

Apply now to be part of a service that focuses on real outcomes and real community connection.

We also offer you a range of benefits that you would expect from an organisation that support others.

Firstly, there is access to a wide range of exclusive retail and leisure discounts through our rewards scheme and the Blue Light Discount card. We also ensure that your future and that of your loved ones is secured with a generous contributory pension plan and death in service benefit. Balancing work and family are made easier with our suite of enhanced family friendly policies and your health and wellness are prioritised with access to our health cash plan, giving you cash back for a wide range of health treatments. We even have access to a care concierge service to assist you with life's challenges, providing invaluable support when you need it most.

But we also know that your training and development is important to you, and as well as a contribution to your professional membership fees, we are keen to support you in making the right steps to learn, grow and develop in ways that are right for you.

CrossReach has been at the forefront of high quality social care for over 150 years, providing loving care to people of all ages and supporting them to live life to the full whatever their circumstances. During that time, we have worked hard to understand the needs of the people who turn to us for help and with them have been at the forefront of pioneering services which have literally changed thousands of lives for the better.

Today we are one of the largest social care providers in Scotland, with experience across a broad range of services. We are still growing, learning, and improving, thanks to the incredible people we have the privilege to support, and all those who support us. We are part of the Church of Scotland and aim to provide social care services and specialist resources in Christ’s name to further the caring work of the Church to people in challenging circumstances.

As we do our work in Christ’s name you must be respectful of our Christian Ethos and be able to work within it.

This post requires you to be a member of the Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme and undertake the necessary vetting checks. You will also be required to be registered with SSSC and it is your professional responsibility to ensure that you meet the standards and criteria for registration.

We have a legal obligation to ensure that we do not employ any worker who has not been granted the relevant permission to work in the UK. This permission is without exception granted by UK Visas and Immigrations. We are required to check the entitlement to work in the UK of all prospective employees, regardless of nationality or job category.

We are committed to ensuring that we attract, retain, and develop the very best people to build a diverse and talented team and we recognise that every individual’s unique background, experience and ability contributes to our success. We aim to create an inclusive and inspiring environment where individuals feel valued and respected and where people can belong, thrive and be their very best, whoever they are.
