We are looking for inspiring, fun-loving, and caring individuals to join our care team. You will have a passion for supporting people to achieve their full potential, and will constantly be looking for opportunities to give new experiences to the people we support. This role is open to international candidates that require visa sponsorship, as well as those already in the UK.
Reporting to: Registered Manager
Salary: £10.90 - £11.65 per hour
Location: Service-based: Dover, Folkestone, Ashford, Herne Bay
As a Support Worker at LDC Care Co no two days are the same. Just like you, the people we support have a range of hobbies and interests: from going on holidays (don’t worry – you get to go too!), to the grand prix, having pamper days at the salon, and spending the days browsing the shops, to trying out the new local restaurants, going to the cinema, and even going to theme parks!
LDC Care Co provide specialist care and support to adults with complex needs within more than 60 residential care homes and supported living settings across Kent. We provide person-centred homely environments to support individuals with learning disabilities, mental health diagnoses, and challenging behaviours (because who hasn’t had a bad day?!) in ways which promote their independence and enhance their quality of life.
As a Support Worker with LDC Care Co, you will be trained to provide high-quality care from Day 1. But your learning doesn’t stop there! You will be provided with opportunities to develop your career in social care, pursue fully-funded formal qualifications, and attend specialist training to support you in your role.
All you have to do, is care!
• A competitive hourly rate of pay, which increases based on successful completion of qualifications!
• £100 Refer a Friend Incentives!
• £100 Joining Incentives – just pass your probation and it’s yours!
• Automatic enrolment into the monthly Reliability Reward draw – just for turning up!
• Early withdrawals on your accrued earnings via our EarlyPay service!
• Blue Light Discount Cards!
• Competitive Sleep-In rates of up to £65 per night!
• Enrolment onto fully-funded formal qualifications to support your career progression!
• Specialist free training, coaching, and development!
• The support from a friendly team of colleagues, and a highly experienced Manager!
What We Need from You:
If you have experience working within care settings and supporting adults with similar needs then great – we can’t wait to meet you! If you already hold formal qualifications that you’ve recently gained whilst working in care, we’d love to see them!
But if you don’t yet, don’t worry – we will teach you everything you need to know!
Not quite sure how much time you can offer? We offer a range of flexible contracts that we can match to your availability.
The main thing we need to see from you is that you are a kind and caring individual, with strong ethical values which demonstrate an ability to support someone through the good times and the bad. Working in care can be tough, but the reward is huge!
