Address: Various locations in Suffolk, see below at posts available
Salary: From £25,185 per annum, with pay progression up to £28,142 per annum (pro rata) or £15.08 per hour plus paid travel time and mileage for Bank hours
Hours: 16 - 22.5 hours per week
Contract: Permanent or Casual basis as Bank staff

Posts available:

Bury St Edmunds - 4 x 16 hours per week (Weekend working only)
Ipswich - 9 x 16 hours per week (Weekend working only)
Lowestoft, Beccles and Bungay - 8 x 22.5 hours per week

Home First provides short-term reablement care to help people stay independent in their own homes. As a Reablement Support Worker, you will be part of a caring, dedicated team making a real impact in your community.

You will require a valid driving licence and access to a car, but apart from that no experience is required, as you will receive:

a full induction and in-depth training
ongoing support from your team
the opportunity to complete a fully funded Level 2 Health and Social Care qualification.

Your role and responsibilities

In this role, you will build and maintain positive relationships with customers and their family carers, promoting health, wellbeing, and independence.

You will support individuals through personalised care plans and short-term enablement strategies, offering guidance to help them make informed choices.

At times, you will assist with dignified personal care needs and engage with customers and carers to explore alternative ways of meeting long-term needs.

You will also promote services that enable safe, independent living at home, monitor progress against care plans, and maintain accurate records to support ongoing reviews.

This is a role where the rewards go beyond the day-to-day. You will experience genuine job satisfaction and a strong sense of achievement, knowing your work directly helps people maintain their independence and continue living comfortably in their own homes.

Watch one of our current Support Workers talk about their role.

Flexible hours and salary

Part-time hours are available from 22.5 hours per week, with weekend-only roles starting from 16 hours per week. Enhanced pay is provided for Sunday working.

We offer a variety of shift patterns, including early (7 am – 3 pm) and late (2.30 pm – 10.30 pm). For those on a 16-hour flexible contract, shorter shifts are also available: 7 am – 11 am or 6.30 pm – 10.30 pm. All full shifts include a 30-minute unpaid, unallocated break. Whether you prefer mornings, evenings, or flexible hours, we have options to fit your schedule and help you achieve a great work-life balance.

The salary from £25,185 per annum comes with performance-related pay progression and potential earnings up to £28,142 per annum (pro rata).

You will receive:

payment for mileage, travel time, and any hours worked on bank holidays
an enhanced rate of time and one-fifth per hour for Sunday shifts
access to the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS)
wellbeing support, childcare vouchers, and high street discounts
refer-a-friend bonus up to £100 (terms and conditions apply).

Travel requirements

This role involves travelling to peoples’ homes in rural locations and driving in various weather conditions, including during hours of darkness, which may occur early in the morning or late in the evening. You will therefore require a valid driving licence and access to a car. If you believe you can meet the travel requirements through other means, please get in touch before submitting your application.
