Glasgow - Support Worker Posts

Throughout the city, although we would hope to place you within a reasonable distance of where you live.

£7.17 to £7.62 per hour
Starting point is dependent on qualifications. Varied hours per week

We are looking for people who can work flexibly and who will integrate with established teams to provide a high standard of care for people with dementia. Successful applicants will provide support and care on a one to one basis for people in Glasgow in their own homes.
Contracts of employment for up to 16 hours a week may be offered to those with sufficient availability and flexibility, but we will also recruit people on a sessional basis.

Relevant qualifications and or experience of working with people with dementia would be an advantage. A comprehensive training package is in place to ensure that service users are given the highest possible level of care and support.

We have paid staff in our organisation aged from 16 to 80.
