Job Introduction

Female Support Worker

Pay rate: £ 14.56 per hour
Shift pattern: 08.00-20.00 - 20.00-08.00

A meaningful role supporting someone to live life to the fullest

We are looking for caring, reliable and confident Female Support Workers to join a small team supporting an individual who lives at home with their family in Portland, Dorset. This person has complex clinical needs, autism, epilepsy, a communication disorder and behaviours that may present as challenging — and they rely on a consistent team who truly understand them.

What really matters, though, is supporting someone who is fun, active, and enjoys a structured routine. Their favourite activities include swimming, trampolining, browsing local shops, going to funfairs, and visiting churches. To help them make the most of these outings, we’re looking for people who know the local area and who hold a full UK driving licence.

What you’ll be doing

As a Support Worker, you’ll play an important role in helping this individual live safely, comfortably, and in a way that reflects their preferences. Your day might include:

Providing high‑quality support on a 2:1 basis
Creating opportunities for meaningful activities at home and in the community
Encouraging social interaction and promoting emotional wellbeing
Supporting communication in the way that works best for them
Helping with routine household tasks to maintain a calm, organised environment

This is a role where your presence genuinely makes a difference every day.

What you’ll bring

We’re looking for people who already have experience in:

Complex Care
Autism
Epilepsy
Behaviours that may be perceived as challenging
Mental Health support

Just as important is your ability to stay calm under pressure, communicate clearly, and build positive, trusting relationships.

Who we are

acuity care delivers specialist support across Brain Injury, Spinal Injury, Learning Disability & Autism, and Mental Health Services. Every package of care is individually designed around the person, their goals, and their life. Our teams are passionate about delivering person‑centred care and empowering the people we support to access new experiences, learn new skills, and live as independently as possible.

What happens next?

If this sounds like the right role for you, please apply by sending us your CV through the job link.
If you meet the requirements, one of our Specialist Recruitment Partners will be in touch to arrange an interview.

acuity care is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of vulnerable individuals. All roles are subject to Enhanced DBS checks and referencing.

We welcome applications from all backgrounds and are proud to be an equal opportunities employer.

What we offer

Westfield Rewards – exclusive discounts with 1,000+ big-name retailers, restaurants and travel brands
Westfield Health Cash Plan – including 24/7 GP access and cashback on health costs
Employee Assistance Programme – confidential support for wellbeing, finances and relationships
Blue Light Card – discounts and free event tickets
acuity academy – training, qualifications and continuous professional development
Career progression within the organisation
Refer a Friend bonus – earn up to £500

This post is exempt under the Equality Act 2010, Schedule 9, Part 1. Due to the nature of the role and the needs of the people we support, we can only accept applications from women for this position.
