The Richmond Fellowship Scotland is a leading voluntary organisation, supporting people with a broad range of needs, including mental health difficulties, learning disabilities, dementia, autism, behaviour deemed as challenging and older people.
They also provide support to individuals who have had contact with the Criminal Justice System, who will require intensive support to successfully live in their own homes as part of the community. They are an organisation driven by strong values and a firm commitment to choice, dignity and social inclusion. Although they support over 2800 people throughout Scotland, they are committed to delivering services that recognise people as individuals.
Due to new business they are currently looking to increase their staff resource in Levenmouth, Cupar and St Andrews. The successful applicants will be supporting people with all aspects of daily living such as general housekeeping, budgeting, personal care, meals, and medication, social and recreational activities as well as developing meaningful relationships.

You will join an experienced team, and receive excellent training, including an SVQ in Health & Social Care. Relevant experience is desirable, however if you are new to care, and have the ability to get along with people, practical life skills and common sense this could be an exiting new rewarding career opportunity.
They offer a competitive salary, enhanced pension contributions and annual leave, childcare vouchers as well as other employee related rewards. PVG checks will be required of all successful applicants. Applicants are required to hold a full current driving licence with access to a vehicle.
