Working hours that suit my lifestyle. Thats when it hits home.
 
Have you been looking to earn some extra cash, while keeping to your current commitments? Now you can! Whats more, youll be making a difference!
 
This is an exciting time to join Home Group one of the UKs Largest Housing providers, and be part of our brilliant Flexible Bank. Youll be supporting our amazing customers, while picking and choosing the shifts you want to work.
 
Where youll work
Youll be helping our vulnerable customers at Aviary House, our €œGood€ Rated CQC registered service, which provides support to customers with mental health needs as part of a Supported Living Setting. 
 
There is lots for you to do and get involved in, from supporting our customers to achieve their hopes and aspirations to working to bespoke care plans. Youll go home each day knowing that youve made an amazing difference to vulnerable peoples lives. How amazing is that!
 
We deliver bespoke support to our customers in order to promote their independence to reach their goals and fulfil their ambitions. We use the LIFE model, which enables us to take positive calculated risks, ensuring our customers have a voice and a choice in all aspects of their support. We focus on what our customers can do, and step in to support, when that extra bit of encouragement is required.
 
You will support our customers to live their day to day lives as independently as possible. The team will tell you that no two days are ever the same because everything we do is €œperson centred€. You might be helping with personal care in the morning and supporting them to attend college in the afternoon.
