Dimensions is supporting six people to share a bungalow together.  The bungalow is a registered care home service which is divided into two parts. The people we support enjoy going to day services, going on holiday, going for tea and cake and they also enjoy activities in the community. They also like cooking, gardening and enjoying time outdoors as well as Karaoke inside. Their families and friends play a big part in their lives so they also require support with maintaining those relationships.

Whether you have worked in healthcare, mental health, autism, or maybe you have a background in retail, cleaning and coaching, this could be the career for you. Dimensions recruit against values and not previous experience.

Dimensions is a leading social care provider in England and Wales, supporting people with learning disabilities and autism, and we are proud to be one of very few social care organisations that are accredited by the Great Places To Work programme. 

Applications will be shortlisted on receipt and interviews will be held until the posts are filled.

The role will involve

  • Helping people to live the individual life they want.
  • Helping people learn the skills they need to live the life they choose.
  • Supporting people with their medication.
  • Supporting with personal care.
  • Encouraging, supporting and teaching to find opportunities.

Shift patterns can vary as we work on a rotational basis so your availability will be discussed at short listing, however a full time contract is 37.5 hours per week and the rate of pay is £9.50 per hour.
