As a Support Worker in Hertfordshire, you’ll bring purpose and stability to someone’s life – helping them enjoy the routines and moments that matter most to them. Recognised as a Great Place to Work for eight years running, we’ll support you to grow, feel valued, and take pride in the difference you make every single day.

About the role

  • Support Worker
  • Full time and Part time contracts available
  • £14.01 per hour
  • Bricket Wood, St Albans. 
  • Full UK driving licence essential. 

We’re looking for experienced Support Workers to join our supported living home in Bricket Wood, supporting up to nine people once fully established. This is a unique opportunity to be part of a home from the very beginning—helping to shape a consistent, structured and high-quality home where people can truly thrive.

This role is ideally suited to someone who is confident working with people who have a history of complex behaviours of distress and understands the importance of structure, routine and clear boundaries. You’ll play a key role in creating a stable, predictable home environment while supporting people to live full, active and independent lives.

The people we support lead community-focused lives, with established routines that include social events, hobbies and developing new skills. Your role will be to maintain and build on these routines, promoting independence and supporting individuals to achieve outcomes. Day-to-day, this will include supporting with personal care, administering medication, preparing meals and enabling access to community opportunities, all while working in a person-centred way.

As an experienced colleague, you’ll  benefit from the stability of working for a not-for-profit organisation, access to development opportunities and clear pathways for progression into Lead or management roles.

About you

We’re specifically looking for candidates who already have experience supporting people with learning disabilities, autism or behaviours of distress. You will be confident in your approach, able to communicate clearly, and committed to maintaining professional boundaries. At Dimensions, we are a values-led organisation, so you’ll naturally demonstrate ambition in helping people reach their potential, courage in supporting positive change, integrity in your communication and actions, partnership in how you work with others, and respect in ensuring people have real choice and control over their lives.

Flexibility is essential in this role, as shifts will include early mornings, late evenings and weekends, with rotas planned in advance. You’ll need to be able to adapt to meet the needs of the people we support and work as part of a close team.
