We’re recruiting Support Workers to join us at this service in Brighton for 5 clients. Southdown Court is our flagship service and we’re very proud of it – a state of the art, purpose-built property situated in Whitehawk, within the city of Brighton and Hove. Each client has their own apartment and garden and receives support 24 hours a day from a team of Support Workers on either a one to one or two to one basis.

We are looking for people who are confident, have good observation skills and are agile – this means being able to walk fast for several minutes at a time without stopping. You don’t need experience or qualifications to join us however, experience of autism would be beneficial.

In return, we can offer you excellent training and promotion opportunities, a place within diverse team, a Blue Light Card, Health Care Cash Back scheme, £100 for passing your probationary period and a £300 introduce a friend scheme – once you’ve established it’s great working for Southdown!
