Job Detail

For everyone living with complex disabilities. For everyone who is deafblind. Sense is here to help people communicate and experience the world. We believe that no one, no matter how complex their disabilities, should be isolated, left out, or unable to fulfill their potential.

Work at Sense can be demanding and so isn’t for everyone, but it is also incredibly rewarding and valuable.

The duties are varied and no two days will be the same. The people we support are individuals and they are all treated as such.

• To deliver services that meet or exceed organisational expectations and standards.

• You don’t need to have previous experience in this field, nor do you need qualifications – we’re happy to work with you to help you become an excellent support worker. 
• Knowledge of multi-sensory impairments/learning difficulties is beneficial.
• A full manual UK license is beneficial to assist with community trips.
• Knowledge of or qualification in British Sign Language or similar is beneficial ( BSL / Makaton etc.).
