SalaryThe Fairholme family are recruiting!
We're a lively residential care home in South Shields supporting adults with mental health issues to achieve their goals and aspirations while living their best lives.
Every day is different as part of the Fairholme family. We love to put on themed nights, from dressing up as cowboys and square dancing during a Hoedown Throwdown, to sipping on fruity mocktails and wearing flower leis for our tropical parties! And you definitely don't want to miss out on Chef Eric cooking up a storm and putting on one of his famous buffets! We really know how to live our best lives together.
We’re looking for some new Support Workers who can join our team. We’ll help you settle in, and support you as you get to know us all. This isn’t really a job, it’s more of a lifestyle where you get to spend your days helping others to enjoy theirs and overcoming any challenges to live a life they love. Get in touch if you can make a difference.
Now we've shared a glimpse of what it's like to work for us, let us introduce ourselves. We’re Salutem and we are committed to making a positive impact on the lives of thousands of children and adults in England and Wales across our residential homes, schools and day centres. Our dedicated support teams empower individuals to overcome any obstacles and live the life they choose.
At Salutem Care and Education, we recognise the value and wisdom that come from all stages of life. Join our team to be a part of a community that truly appreciates the richness of age diversity.
Each day will be different, and the main focus of your role is to provide daily support to adults in our residential services. It’s definitely not a normal 9-5, you can work days, nights, and flexible shifts too. Talking of ‘dream’ jobs, some of our shifts are sleep-ins!
We want the best for everyone we support and that's what makes us a family. If you have the ability to support someone to feel at home, be their true self, and do what makes their heart happy - we want to hear from you. This is a meaningful role and will suit someone who is looking to make a difference and make memories that'll last a lifetime.
We know our staff put 100% into building brighter futures for the individuals we support. That's why we offer career progression no matter where you start in the organisation. Your progress here will be regularly reviewed and as you gain expertise your rate of pay will increase. We believe in creating a Career from Care and we want the Support Workers we recruit now to become our managers of the future!
