    Join our Vocational Services team and support people to find and sustain meaningful employment, while gaining a fully funded SEQF Level 3 Supported Employment Qualification delivered by The BUSY Group. With a predominantly Monday to Friday working pattern, excellent development opportunities and the chance to make a lasting difference to people's lives, this is an exciting next step for experienced Support Workers looking to broaden their career.

    Liverpool City Region | £25,584 per annum | 37.5 hours per week

    Essential: Full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle for work purposes

    At Community Integrated Care, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to live a meaningful life, achieve their ambitions and be valued as part of their community. We are proud to be partnering in the delivery of an exciting new supported employment programme that will help people overcome barriers and move into meaningful paid employment.

    We are looking for a Support Worker to join our Vocational Services team, supporting people with disabilities, learning disabilities, autism, neurodiverse conditions, mental health challenges and a range of complex life circumstances to achieve their employment goals.

    Unlike many support worker roles, this position is typically delivered between 9am and 5pm, Monday to Friday, offering greater consistency and work-life balance. Flexibility will occasionally be required to meet the needs of the people we support, which may include some evening or weekend working.

    If you're looking for a rewarding role where you can see the direct impact of your support and help people build confidence, independence and brighter futures, we'd love to hear from you.

    Community Integrated Care is one of the UK's largest health and social care charities. We transform lives by delivering high-quality, person-centred support that fosters independence and empowerment.

    Our charity was founded in 1988 and we were one of the pioneers of the 'Care in the Community' agenda, enabling people to move out of long-stay institutions and live more fulfilling lives.

    Since then, we've remained leaders in social care, providing bespoke support to thousands across the UK. Today, we support more than 2,600 people and employ 6,600 caring and committed colleagues across England and Scotland.

    We have a proud history of breaking boundaries and are always looking for new ways to make a positive difference through bold ideas, innovative projects and impactful partnerships.
  • Who you'll be supporting & more about the role:
  • As a Support Worker within Vocational Services, you'll provide person-centred employment support to individuals who face barriers to finding and sustaining work.

    You'll work closely with people to identify their strengths, skills and aspirations, helping them take positive steps towards employment, education and training opportunities that align with their goals.

    Your role will include:

    • Building positive and trusting relationships with the people you support
    • Delivering personalised employment-focused support and coaching
    • Supporting individuals with vocational profiling, job searching, CV preparation and interview skills
    • Helping people identify their strengths, interests and career ambitions
    • Working with employers to create inclusive employment opportunities
    • Providing ongoing support to help people sustain employment and achieve positive outcomes
    • Collaborating with community organisations, referral partners and other professionals
    • Maintaining accurate records and supporting programme outcomes
    • Promoting independence, confidence, wellbeing and social inclusion

    This is a local office and community-based role, supporting people across the Liverpool City Region. As travel between appointments, employers and community partners is required, you'll need a full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle.
  • About you:
  • You don't need previous experience in supported employment to be successful in this role. What matters most is your passion for helping people achieve their goals and your ability to build positive relationships.

    This role could be an excellent next step for experienced Support Workers looking to develop specialist skills in employment support and vocational services. We also welcome applications from people with experience in community support, employability, coaching, mentoring or related roles.

    You'll also bring:
    • Excellent communication and listening skills
    • A person-centred and strengths-based approach
    • The ability to motivate and encourage others
    • Good organisational and IT skills
    • Confidence working independently and as part of a team
    • A genuine commitment to inclusion and equality

    At Community Integrated Care, our values are at the heart of everything we do. We're looking for people who:

    Include - You recognise and value each person's unique strengths, ensuring everyone feels welcomed, involved and respected.

    Deliver - You are committed to providing high-quality support and achieving positive outcomes for the people you work with.

    Aspire - You believe in people's potential and encourage them to achieve goals they may never have thought possible.

    Respect - You treat everyone with dignity, compassion and understanding, building relationships based on trust.

    Enable - You empower people to make their own choices, develop their skills and increase their independence.

    If you're passionate about supporting people to build confidence, achieve employment goals and live their best lives, we'd love to hear from you. Please contact our friendly recruitment specialist [email protected] or call her on 07816 266959.
