Full Job Description

The Peripatetic Support Workers role is pivotal in ensuring that the people we work for are always supported by staff who know what’s important to them and how best to support them.

As a Peripatetic Support Worker, you will be working across a set number of teams to cover their annual leave and absence.

This means that the people we support will have a familiar face and continuity of support when their regular team member is off.


Full time staff will have a set rota that they will work on a two weekly basis, meaning you may work in a different team each day or may be with the one team for a week.

The two-week rolling rota you will work is -

Week 1 - Monday, Tuesday, Saturday, Sunday are workdays and full availability is required, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are days off

Week 2 - Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are workdays, and full availability is required Monday, Tuesday, Saturday, Sunday are days off


Part time contracts of 24 hours per week are also available, however the above pattern would not apply.


Sleepover availability will be a requirement on an ad hoc basis depending on the teams you are allocated to. Sleepovers are in addition to your contracted hours and paid at £12 per hour


You will be asked to work in the North Lanarkshire Area.


Two years support worker experience is absolutely essential for this role and driver preferred.


INTERVIEWS WILL BE HELD ON 9TH AND 10TH SEPTEMBER
