The Vacancy

Hi, I am Donald, I live in Scone in Perthshire and I am recruiting for 2 Personal Development workers to join my brilliant team to help me live my good life.

People who know and love me say I am intelligent, thoughtful, considerate and courteous and that I have a curious mind. I am also told I am kind, fun loving and have a passion for the great outdoors.

Living my good life involves having the wind in my face and water in my hair. I love running, cycling, long walks in the countryside or on the beach, and swimming in the sea. At home, I enjoy playing cards, board games, completing jigsaws, doing arts & crafts, and cooking and baking. I am good at chess. I also enjoy reading, singing and being part of my local community, visiting church and spending time with my family.

I have a great life ahead of me and I need some help to live the life I want. I am looking for team members who are honest and kind, and people who are emotionally mature and can offer me calm reassurance and guidance when I need it. You must be active and have a sense of adventure, a spirit of ‘get up and go’ to ensure we make the most of each day as we head to the beach, or on a cycle or out for a run.

I will also need support to manage my home, to stay healthy, safe, and well and to reconnect to my local and wider community. I will have support during the day, in the evening and overnight. Having some knowledge of autism would be an advantage but is not a deal breaker. Having the right people around me is more important as education and training will be provided.

Having a full Driver’s License would be an advantage for this position.

Benefits include:

• We pay PVG and SSSC fees
• 30 days annual leave - rising to 35 days after 5 years' service
• Life Assurance
• Access to discount scheme
• Cycle to work and tech scheme
• Credit Union affiliation
• Flexible working options
• Health Plan
