Apply for the Bank Support Worker – Abingdon (OX14)

Job Description:

Full UK driving licence would be advantageous.

Sponsorship is not available for this position.

Make a difference by supporting people to live their life, their way.

Supporting individuals across multiple locations as a Bank Worker for people with learning disabilities, autism, or mental health needs is more than just a job – it’s an opportunity to make a real difference.

Every day is different. You might be supporting someone on a relaxing walk in the park, visiting their favourite café, or encouraging them to explore hobbies and interests that bring them joy. You’ll play a key role in empowering individuals to build confidence, develop independence, and live fulfilling lives within their communities.

A full UK driving licence is advantageous but not essential – what matters most is your compassion, adaptability, and commitment to helping others thrive.

We can teach you everything you need to know about supporting people well. What we can’t teach you, is the stuff that comes from within:

That buzz you get when you celebrate someone’s wins – big or small.

That natural sense of wanting to make someone’s day brighter.

That understanding that climbing a mountain starts with a single step.

In essence, that’s what we are looking for from you.

What does it mean to be a support worker?

Think about your daily routine and what matters to you. If you needed support to keep your day the way you like it, what would be important to you?

In this role, you will:

  • Take time to understand what a great day means to the person you support.
  • Adjust your approach to meet people’s needs and build on both their strengths and your own.
  • Help build a supportive environment that encourages everyone to thrive and gives them the freedom to live their life their way.

People are at the heart of everything we do and as a support worker you will embody our core values by:

Working together

  • Respecting the strengths and differences of the people you work with
  • Communicating openly and building trust
  • Helping each other to provide the best support possible
  • Being dedicated to making a difference in people’s lives
  • Whether the day was easy or tough, taking responsibility for your actions and focusing on what matters most to those you support

Having courage

  • Being open to new ideas and approaches
  • Using creativity and flexibility to try different ways of helping others
  • Providing the most effective and adaptable support possible

If you are offered a role with us, you will need to complete an enhanced DBS check. We will submit your application and pay for your check.

We’re committed to being Disability Confident and we guarantee to interview all applicants with a disability who meet the minimum criteria for the vacancy.

If you require any assistance to find out about current vacancies, making an application, or need any recruitment related documentation in a more accessible format please send an e‑mail to Recruitment@affinitytrust.org.

Apply without delay!
