Is This You?

Do you stay calm when things take time?

Can you explain information clearly and more than once if needed?

Do you value routine, structure and helping others feel safe and confident?

This is a physical, hands‑on role , and to succeed you'll have:

• Good spoken and written English

• A driving licence holder with own vehicle to commute to work

• The right to live and work in the UK

• A practical, active approach to work, with the ability to support people throughout the day

• A caring, positive and resilient mindset

If you genuinely care about people, we can teach you the rest.

As a Waking Night Support Worker, you'll help people live fuller, more independent lives by:

• To provide care through the night, checking residents at regular intervals according to their care plan.
• To respond promptly to calls for assistance while always respecting the privacy, dignity and choice of the residents.
• To engage in conversations to help maintain residents' sense of identity, upholding dignity at all times.
• Keeping clear and accurate records
• Working closely with colleagues and professionals
• Be always ready for unannounced spot checks and adhere to all duties and protocols while staying awake.
