Community Support Officer (Trustlink, Residential Care) BLUC11680
Macclesfield, Cheshire
Part Time 18.5 Hours (temporary)
Salary FTE £26,000

Our client is a local company with a portfolio of approximately 5000 affordable homes in Macclesfield and the surrounding areas. They are passionate about what they do in providing high quality homes, and investing in their communities to improve people’s lives.

If one of their elderly or disabled customers needs help in an emergency at home, they need a safe pair of hands on the scene straight away to help them out. From gaining entry to the premises, to appraising the situation and even providing basic first aid if necessary, your actions will need to be swift, well-reasoned and decisive.

Even when you’re not on an emergency call-out, they’ll expect you to work proactively by monitoring their customers’ general safety and well-being, and ensuring that the level of service they receive is always matched to their specific needs. Already with solid experience of working with vulnerable customers in a front line role, you will be no stranger to the demands of a target-driven environment.

They’re also looking for excellent interpersonal and IT skills, together with a proven ability to plan, organise and problem solve with minimum supervision.

The following shift patterns are worked on a rota basis: 8.00 a.m. to 4.20 p.m., 9.00 a.m. to 5.20 p.m. and 11.45 a.m. to 8.00 p.m.

Due to the nature of the role, a full UK driving licence is essential.
