We’re looking for a calm, patient and confident Male Support Worker to join our team in Stafford (ST16), supporting a gentleman in his 30s with autism and learning disabilities.

This is a 1:1 lone-working role, ideal for someone who values building trust, respecting boundaries and supporting independence. You’ll play an important role in creating a safe, predictable and supportive environment where he can feel comfortable and in control of his day.

You’ll be supporting a quiet and independent individual who values routine, space and consistency.

He enjoys:

• Vacuuming — even creating tasks just for the satisfaction of completing them
• Gardening and being outdoors
• Going for walks, where support is provided at a respectful distance
• Weekly train journeys to visit his parents in Wolverhampton

He takes time to build relationships, so patience, consistency and a calm approach are essential.

You’ll provide personalised, person-centred support, including:

• Supporting daily routines and independence
• Preparing meals and supporting healthy routines
• Administering medication
• Using a calm, confident approach to behaviours of distress
• Maintaining a structured, predictable environment
• Supporting community activities such as walks and travel
• Building a steady, trusting relationship over time

This role requires confidence in lone working, with the ability to remain composed and responsive.

This is a full-time role worked across:

• Long day + sleep-in: 7:00am – 7:00am (next day)
• Sleep-in: 10:00pm – 7:00am (£50 paid to sleep)

Rotas are provided in advance to support a healthy work–life balance.

You’ll be a great fit if you are:

• Calm, patient and emotionally resilient
• Confident supporting behaviours of distress
• Comfortable working independently in a lone working role
• Respectful of personal space and boundaries
• Consistent, reliable and structured in your approach
• A good communicator who builds trust over time
• A confident driver

Experience in Positive Behaviour Support or similar is preferred, but training will be provided.

• A competitive pay rate with uplift for overtime you choose to work
• Flexible shift patterns to support your work–life balance
• 30 days’ paid annual leave (including public holidays – pro rata)
• Opportunities for career progression
• Supported Learn to Drive scheme
• Salary advance scheme – access up to 50% earned pay before payday
• High Street discounts (shopping, entertainment, gyms, dining)
• Life Assurance and Company Pension
• Industry-leading training
• Enhanced DBS paid for by us
