Looking for a fulfilling and rewarding career?

We’re currently looking for Support Workers within the Teesside area to join our friendly team. We have full-time & part-time contracts available (minimum of 30 hours per week). Flexibility is key for this role as our shifts are varied, meaning you may be required to work weekdays, weekends, and evenings.  Due to support locations, you must also be able to reliably travel within the Teesside Area so a full UK Driving Licence is required.

Our mission is to provide inclusive and personalised support. As a Support Worker, you’ll be delivering vital support to our customers, including helping them with their personal care, daily living skills, administration of medication, and their finances. This is a varied and meaningful role where you will be helping the people you support to live the life they choose.

You don’t need previous care experience or qualifications – we’re simply looking for compassionate and caring individuals who are enthusiastic about making a difference to people’s lives and delivering the highest possible quality of care. Whether you are experienced in care or are looking to start a new career, our in-house training team will ensure that you have all the additional skills you need to deliver your role with confidence. This is a fantastic opportunity to gain and develop life-long skills!

Why join the Avalon family?

    As The Avalon Group meets the requirements in respect of exempted questions under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974, all applicants who are offered employment will be subject to a criminal record check from the Disclosure and Barring Service before the appointment is confirmed.

    Criminal records will be taken into account for recruitment purposes only when the conviction is relevant. Having a ‘spent’ or ‘unspent’ conviction will not necessarily bar you from employment – this will depend on the circumstances and background to your offence(s) and we will consider these on a case by case basis.

    The amendments to the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 (2013 and 2020) provides that when applying for certain jobs and activities, certain convictions and cautions are considered ‘protected’. This means that they do not need to be disclosed to employers, and if they are disclosed, employers cannot take them into account.

    By submitting your details to The Avalon Group, we will hold your data and send you further correspondence with our latest news.
