Who we are

Start Your Career with a Leading National Charity – Make a Real Difference!

United Response is a national charity with a heart, founded in 1973. What began as a single service in West Sussex has grown to support over 2,000 people across 400 locations in England and Wales, with more than 3,500 dedicated staff. Our mission? To champion the rights of those we support to live, work, socialise, and fully participate in their communities—free from discrimination and unnecessary barriers. Guided by our core values—CREATIVE, STRONG, HONEST, RESPONSIVE, and UNITED—we are committed to making a lasting impact.

About the Role:

As a Support Worker with United Response, you’ll be helping individuals live independently in their own homes and live life on their own terms. Your day-to-day tasks may include:

  • Assisting with household tasks such as cooking and cleaning
  • Teaching and developing life skills to empower independence
  • Encouraging access to the community and fostering participation in local activities
  • Accompanying individuals on trips and leisure activities
  • Providing personal care with respect and dignity
  • Taking an active interest in the lives of those you support, building meaningful relationships
  • Sleep-ins as part of the role

The only essential skill required is a valid UK driving license—everything else is about who you are as a person. If you are compassionate, respectful, and committed to helping others, you already have what it takes to succeed.

What We’re Looking For:

  • A genuine desire to help others and make a difference
  • The ability to work effectively as part of a team
  • A friendly and respectful attitude towards those we support

Pay & Benefits:

At United Response, we value our employees and provide comprehensive benefits, including:

  • Competitive pay at £12.00 per hour with an additional payment of £62 per night
  • Pension contributions
  • Cycle to work scheme for your commuting needs
  • Access to free occupational health, physiotherapy, counselling, and advice services
  • Fully paid training with opportunities to earn nationally recognised qualifications
  • Travel to work scheme (season ticket loan) to ease your commute
  • Exclusive discounts through our online shopping platform with over 3,500 retailers

Additional Information:

This role includes some evening, weekend, and bank holiday shifts, so flexibility is essential. Successful candidates will need to pass a fullDBS check (cost covered by United Response).
