Our amazing #TeamVictoria in Dundee are looking for a friendly, caring and dedicated new colleague on a permanent basis.

The Role

You\'ll become part of a fun, friendly team who supports nine individuals with various learning disabilities to maintain their tenancies in their own flats. which are all located in the same complex. There\'s never a dull moment, every day is different!

As a Support Practitioner, you\'ll support with all aspects of daily living, including meal preparation, housework, medication, finances and appointments. With all of the individuals enjoying getting out and about in their local communities, you\'ll also find yourself getting involved in things like swimming, taking part in walking groups, day trips, city breaks, arts & crafts, animals, football and cooking to name a few.

About You

At Cornerstone, we don\'t recruit on experience and qualifications; we\'re more interested in what you as a person will bring to our team! We\'ll pay you for your training and give you all the practical skills you\'ll need. We\'ll even fund your SVQ (SCQF level 6/7) qualification too!

All we\'ll need you to bring is: -

• A caring and compassionate attitude and approach
• The ability to work well in a team
• Confidence to go in the water as swimming is a regular activity
• Good communication and organisational skills
• A positive attitude with a willingness to learn
• Confidence in the use of computers

It would be great is you also have a full clean driving license as some of the people we support have their own mobility cars, however this isn\'t a dealbreaker for the right candidates.
