About the role:

You will be supporting people and encouraging them to meet others, assisting them to achieve new goals, build skills, and supporting them to have better links to their community.

As Community Care Trust operates a 24/7 service to our community, our support workers are required to work on a fixed roster, which generally offers two consecutive days off per week.

Our team is supportive and inclusive and whilst we are looking for someone with experience in support work, we would be more than happy to train a person with a caring, empathic, and positive/bubbly outlook on life to ensure our supported person/s get the very best our service has to offer.

About us:

Community Care Trust’s vision is a world that truly values and celebrates diversity. We work in partnership with adults and youth across Te Waipounamu (The South Island) who need some support in their lives to achieve their goals. We work alongside people to ensure they live the life they want and achieve their dreams and aspirations as valued and contributing people within their community.

• Hold a current First Aid Certificate (or be willing to complete one at our cost)
• Hold a FULL current NZ Driver License (Essential)
• Be legally eligible to work in New Zealand
• Have a valid work visa with a minimum of 12 months until expiry

Our organisation has a strong commitment to safeguarding children and any employees will be vetted to a level appropriate to the role for which they have applied.
