About the Role
Senior Supervisor – Day service
Bray, Co. Wicklow
Job reference - SS_BRAYHS_0810
39 hours per week – Permanent Contract
We will continue to provide specialist autism services for adults across our Residential, Respite, Day, and Community Support Services.
Our aim is to positively work alongside autistic people, their families and carers in providing specialist individually tailored services for all to enjoy. In recent years we have successfully expanded our services throughout Dublin, Kildare, Wexford and Wicklow and continue to seek out opportunities where we can offer assistance and value.
Given the significant role our team play in the lives of those we support our recruitment is focused on individuals willing to go the extra mile. Whether it’s helping the people we support to live independently, enjoy a better quality of life, or play a more active role in their communities our team always strives to deliver the best service possible. No two autistic people are the same and therefore no two jobs with us are the same.
