Make a Real Difference Every Day

At Autism Initiatives, we believe every autistic person deserves the opportunity to live a fulfilling, independent life. We work alongside the people we support, providing person-centred services that celebrate individuality, promote choice, and empower people to achieve their goals.

We're looking for caring, reliable and motivated individuals to join our friendly Supported Living team in Kensington, Liverpool. Whether you're experienced in care or looking for a rewarding new career, we'd love to hear from you.

About the Role

As a Support Worker, you'll build positive, trusting relationships with the people you support, helping them to live as independently as possible while achieving the goals that matter most to them.

  • Encouraging participation in hobbies, education, employment and community activities.
  • Supporting health and wellbeing, helping people build confidence and develop new skills.
  • Working as part of a supportive team that puts people at the heart of everything it does.

Every person we support is unique, and so is the support we provide. You'll have the opportunity to make a genuine, lasting difference to someone's life every single day.

About You

You don't need previous care experience—we provide comprehensive training and ongoing support. What matters most is that you:

  • Have a positive, caring and respectful approach.
  • Are reliable, resilient and motivated.
  • Enjoy helping others achieve their goals.
  • Have excellent communication and teamwork skills.
  • Are committed to providing high-quality, person-centred support.
