Our Community Support team is expanding and we are on the look out for some fantastic new Community Support Workers. The role is extremely varied and every day is different we wouldnt want it any other way.

Peak15 What makes us different?

We are an organisation committed to innovation. We are stuffed to the brim with people of real character - people who bring our vision of outstanding social care to life every single day. We need a few more people like that and you might be just the person.

The Community Support Worker role

Forget everything you think you know about Community support work. Working alongside adults with learning disabilities is creative work but most of all it can be really fun. And it's flexible too, some of the team start their day at 9am so there is flexibility for that ever-needed work/life balance.

You will need to be a car driver, but that doesnt mean you will spend all day in your car, our typical travel distances are short, you might be driving from Horley to Redhill or Crawley to Horsham. We pay competitive mileage rates, we also pay you for your travel time in between visits.

You will provide person centred support to a small group of people meaning you can build some truly great relationships, you wont spend the day visiting multiple people for short periods of time. The support will range from providing personal care at home to supporting with shopping, medical appointments, and the more fun kind of activities such as going to the cinema, heading out in the countryside for a long walk finished with a drink at the pub.

You don't need any specific experience (some of our best community support workers didn't). We can give you the skills - all we need from you is that energy and a strong sense of values. At Peak15 we look for our staff to be progressive; empowering; supportive; innovative; collaborative; purposeful and most importantly - have an element of joy!

If you consider yourself to be a person with ethics, energy and empathy, then you might be just the person we're looking for.

Training & Development

You may hold an NVQ L2 or L3 in social care - that's fabulous, although not required. We will support you to achieve one of those if you like.
