Are you ready for an exciting new opportunity to be part of something special? Priory is looking for a dedicated Support Worker to join our team at a brand-new, nurse-led residential service in Melton Mowbray supporting individuals with complex mental health needs. This is a fantastic opportunity to play a key role in shaping and delivering a pioneering service.
You’ll be part of a dedicated and compassionate team, all working together to ensure the smooth running of the hospital and to support the wellbeing of our patients. Whether you're assisting with day-to-day operations, supporting with care requirements, keeping things organised, or ensuring our spaces are well looked after, your support plays an important part in creating a positive experience for those who live and work here.
You can find additional information in the attached job description.
Our work is rewarding but can be challenging, so resilience is key. No two days are the same! Your natural empathy will help you support others through both the highs and lows.
The ideal candidate will have an NVQ Level 2 in Health & Social Care or a related area, or an equivalent or higher recognised qualification, along with a GCSE or NVQ Level 2 in English and Maths. It is recognised that not all new recruits will already hold an NVQ Level 2 qualification; however, they will be expected to commence the attainment process within six months of joining and complete the qualification within a specified timeframe. Experience of working in a related environment is desirable.
For more information about the role, you can email KimTheobald@priorygroup.com
We want you to succeed at Priory and thrive in your role. You will be well supported with regular career conversations. We also offer full training and numerous pathways into leadership and qualified clinical positions to help you shape your career with us.
Shortlisting may begin upon receipt of applications, and the Recruiting Manager may close the vacancy early if enough suitable candidates are identified.
