Male Support Worker – Pollok, Glasgow (35 hours)

About Sense Scotland

Sense Scotland supports people with complex needs to live happy, fulfilling lives. We’re values‑led, relationship‑focused, and proud of the positive impact our staff make every day. Join us and build a rewarding career where you truly make a difference.

About the Role

We’re recruiting a Male Support Worker to join our Pollok Housing Support Service. You’ll be part of a close‑knit team supporting two men in their 50s who are deafblind, living independently in their own homes.

Support is delivered on a 2:1 basis and focuses on empowering each individual to live a full and active life. Both gentlemen enjoy swimming, long walks, meals out, travel, and community activities, including overseas trips. Strong, respectful communication and relationship‑building are key to this role.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide person‑centred support with daily living (personal care, housework, meals, medication, finances, companionship)
  • Promote independence, choice, and individuality
  • Support health, wellbeing, and active lifestyles
  • Maintain accurate records and follow support plans
  • Work collaboratively with colleagues, families, and professionals

Shift Pattern

  • 35 hours per week
  • Mix of day shifts and longer shifts including sleepovers
  • Flexibility required (fair and balanced rota provided)

About You

  • Caring, patient, and reliable with a positive attitude
  • Good communicator and team player
  • Organised, proactive, and eager to learn
  • Passionate about supporting people with additional needs

Experience in social care is welcome but not required—we also encourage career‑changers to apply.

Important Information

  • This role is restricted to male applicants due to an occupational requirement (Equality Act 2010)
  • Visa sponsorship is not available

If you’re looking for meaningful work where no two days are the same, we’d love to hear from you.
