Are you ready to take the lead and make a meaningful difference in people's lives? We're looking for an experienced and motivated Senior Support Worker to work within our supportive living service in Bromley. Delivering and overseeing high-quality support for individuals with learning disabilities and/or difficulties, autism, complex needs and mental health problems.

In this role, you'll support people to live as independently as possible within their own home, promoting choice, control, and inclusion in everyday life. You'll play a key role in ensuring each person receives tailored, person-centred support that reflects their goals, preferences, and aspirations.

Reporting to the Registered Manager, you'll divide your time between hands-on support and leadership or administrative responsibilities. You'll support the coordination of the service, guide and mentor staff, and ensure the service runs smoothly, safely, and in line with best practice and regulatory standards.

You'll also work closely with families, carers, and external professionals to provide consistent, high-quality support, ensuring that each person's needs are met in a holistic and respectful way.

Where You'll Be Working

This full-time role is based in our supported living service in Bromley. You'll combine shift-based support with dedicated time for leadership and administrative duties, playing a key role in maintaining high standards and ensuring the service operates effectively.
