Job Description

Are you an inspiring leader who is passionate about making a positive impact?



We are looking for a Senior Support Worker to join our welcoming teams in Cardiff, where we provide high-quality, person-centred supported living services.

You will need to hold a full UK driving licence for this role.

About Mirus

For 40 years, we have provided support so people can do the things they love, achieve their goals, and live good lives - always with voice, choice, and control.



We support people with learning disabilities, mental ill-health, and autistic people. Our services are shaped by the people who use them - we listen to and value each person's unique voice and experiences, creating an environment where everyone feels heard and understood.



We know that people have better lives when they feel part of their community - and the community benefits too! That's why we work with others to build networks that encourage people to explore opportunities, discover new interests, develop relationships, and enhance their independence.



Everything we do is guided by our values:

Together, Respectful, Responsible, Empowering, and Courageous.

What You'll Do

As a senior support worker, you will:


Lead and motivate your team to provide high-quality support. Set high standards and support team members in their development. Ensure Quality Assurance systems are in place and continuously improve the support provided. Work in partnership with others, building strong networks with families, advocates, and professionals. Develop strategies that ensure people can live good lives. Ensure that people have voice, choice and control in everything they do. Make sure the service meets Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW) regulations and Local Authority service requirements. Report to the support team manager, ensuring that the service runs smoothly and meets the needs of the people we support.

Why Join Us?

We value our staff and offer:


A fully funded and supported QCF Level 2 Health and Social Care qualification (if not already achieved). Paid work-related travel at 45p per mile between services. Extra pay for sleep-in and wake-in shifts - one of the highest rates in Wales. A full training programme with opportunities for development and career progression. 24 days' annual leave, plus bank holidays (increasing after 5 years' service). A Cycle to Work Scheme. A Wellbeing Hub to support your health and wellbeing. Registration with Social Care Wales and DBS check paid for by Mirus.
