Dimensions is proud to be recognised as a Great Place to Work year after year.

We’re looking for compassionate, calm and patient Female Support Workers to join our team in Tipton (DY4), supporting one lady in her 60s with a learning disability and mobility needs.

This is a 1:1 support role in a personalised setting, where your focus will be on building trust, providing reassurance and supporting day-to-day wellbeing. We currently have two positions available, with flexibility for relief/bank work.

You’ll play a key role in supporting her to feel safe, comfortable and supported within her daily routines.

You’ll support a lady who:

• Enjoys watching TV, especially soaps
• Likes to spend time out and about, particularly in warmer weather
• Is still exploring and developing her routines and preferences

She can experience periods of distress, so a calm, reassuring and empathetic approach is essential.

Family is actively involved, with her sister and brother visiting regularly, so building positive relationships is key.

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

• Providing personal care with dignity and respect
• Supporting mobility, including hoisting
• Supporting daily routines and structure
• Preparing meals and supporting nutrition
• Administering medication
• Offering reassurance during periods of distress
• Building a strong, trusting relationship
• Supporting brief drop-in visits to assist with hoisting

Flexible shifts available, including:

• 8:00am – 1:00pm
• 12:00pm – 6:00pm
• Long day + sleep-in: 5:00pm – 9:00am (next day)
• Sleep-in: 11:00pm – 7:00am (£50 paid to sleep)

• 8:00am – 9:00am
• 12:00pm – 1:00pm
• 5:00pm – 6:00pm

These help support hoisting and transitions throughout the day.

You’ll be a great fit if you are:

• Calm, patient and emotionally supportive
• Compassionate and empathetic
• Confident and reassuring in your approach
• Comfortable supporting personal care and hoisting
• A good communicator who builds strong relationships
• Reliable, consistent and attentive
• Comfortable working 1:1 in a supportive environment

Experience is helpful but not essential — full training will be provided.

Family members are regularly involved, so maintaining respectful, open communication is an important part of the role.

• A competitive pay rate with uplift for overtime you choose to work
• Flexible working options including part-time and relief roles
• 30 days’ paid annual leave (including public holidays – pro rata)
• Opportunities for career progression
• Supported Learn to Drive scheme (where applicable)
• Salary advance scheme – access up to 50% earned pay before payday
• High Street discounts (shopping, dining, entertainment, gyms)
