Looking for a part-time role that truly makes a difference, with a full week off every other week?

Step into something meaningful with Active Care in the Home and help us build a brand-new care team supporting a bright, spirited 20-year-old young woman in Barnstaple, Devon.

About the role
We are creating a dedicated team of Support Workers to provide specialist care when our client returns home from her residential setting. She spends two days at home with her family every other week, and that is where you come in.

Our client has learning disabilities, global developmental delay, and is non-verbal. She is full of personality and thrives with the right support around her. You will never work alone, as every shift is double-up, meaning you will always be alongside another Support Worker.

This is a unique opportunity to build a consistent, meaningful connection with one individual and become an important part of her home life.

If you are compassionate, dependable, and looking for structured part-time hours within a truly supportive environment, this could be the perfect fit.

When you will be working
We have days available on a consistent two-week rolling pattern. Potential to transition to a bi-weekly schedule of 24 contracted hours upon successful completion of the probation period.

• Week 1: Monday and Tuesday days, 8am-8pm
• Week 2: Enjoy the entire week off

This pattern repeats every two weeks, giving you consistency and a fantastic work-life balance.

What to look forward to

• Earn up to £13.50 per hour (depending on experience)
• Full specialist training, shadow shifts, and ongoing support from your Care Manager
• Access to the Active Learning Hub, e-learning and in-person development
• Holiday pay, regular monthly rotas, and a Nest pension
• Be recognised through our Active Awards programme
• Refer a friend and earn up to £1,500
• A chance to build a meaningful career with the backing of a leading clinical and business team

This is more than just a job. It is a chance to build a trusted connection with one individual and make a genuine difference in her life.
