Waking Night Support Worker

We are proud to say that support workers at the Kent Autistic Trust are quite unique. We have a superb track record of successfully supporting challenging individuals including those with non-verbal communication needs and self-injurious behaviour.

We provide 24-hour support and care for autistic adults. Staff provide physical, emotional, and personal care, as well as domestic services in various settings. Some of those we support also have medical conditions including epilepsy.

Working for us often means that no two days are the same, but the care and support we give is consistently high quality, with CQC rating all of our services good, and many outstanding.

Having a background in supporting people with Autism in a previous role within a social care environment is desirable, although it isn\'t essential. What is essential is that you understand that autism can be complex and challenging and that each person we support is unique.

We seek staff who really value every person whether its the people we support, their families or carers, or other staff by respecting their priorities, needs, abilities and limits. We provide comprehensive training and assessment for new staff, and after that we continue to develop our talent through an ongoing learning and development curriculum.

The logistics of the work we do necessitate transporting the people we support to appointments, activities or days out. Driving is therefore an integral responsibility of many of our jobs. Drivers need a full driving licence and the confidence and willingness to drive a small minibus (people carrier) or a mobility car. However, a driving licence is not always an essential criteria for every role but may be an overriding selection criteria.

Staff also need a sufficient level of fitness and be willing to participate in activities such as walking, swimming and cycling.

WAKING NIGHT SUPPORT WORKER

We offer many benefits, which include some salary sacrifice arrangements, although some benefits are dependent on a minimum earnings threshold:

o 28 days holiday, rising to 33 days after 1 year (Pro Rata for Part Time Positions)
o Generous occupational sick pay scheme after completed probation
o Pension
o Life Assurance
o Long Service Awards
o Counselling Services
o Employee Assistance Programme
o Significant Retail and Leisure Discount Scheme that could save staff an average of £1,000 pa
o Discounted Gym Membership
o Financial Well-being Scheme (loans and savings)
o Voluntary sleep-ins, currently £60 per night
o Opportunities to pick up additional voluntary casual shifts
o Paid training
o We also have plans to introduce both a Cycle to Work Scheme and a Car Lease Scheme.
