Flexi - Bank Support Worker

The Stanway Villa family are recruiting!

Stanway Villa is a vibrant and lively residential care home in Colchester supporting adults with learning disabilities and physical disabilities to live their best lives every day!

No two days are the same at Stanway Villa - we're keen bakers in this house, so you'll often find us together creating our latest edible masterpiece (although we're partial to a chocolate cake!). You'll get the chance to get to know all the individuals we support like Grant, Kim, and self-professed Karaoke Queen Susan as you support them to do the things they love - from friendly game competitions, to exercise classes and trips to the seaside! Whatever you get up to, you'll be making lifelong memories with the people you support.

We love the job we do, and we’re looking for new work-family members to share the good times with, so we can offer the best support we can, and keep having lots of fun too! Apply now and join us today!

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.

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.

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!
