£13 per hour
Full-time
New Recovery Support Worker role available!

Join Lifeways in Southampton – You're not just anyone.

Shift Pattern: 10am–10pm with sleep-ins
Pay Rate: £13.45 per hour

  • Supporting individuals with conditions like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, autism, and substance misuse
  • Helping with medication, appointments, budgeting, and daily living skills
  • Encouraging community engagement through college, volunteering, and creative activities
  • Creating recovery plans and maintaining high standards of documentation
  • Being a consistent, calming presence in a dynamic environment
Who Thrives Here?
You’re resilient, adaptable, and a natural listener. You know how to stay grounded in stressful situations and bring warmth, empathy, and structure to those who need it most. You’re not just joining a team—you’re becoming part of a support system that truly matters.

Perks That Matter
We believe in taking care of our people, too:
  • Funded health & social care qualifications
  • Free DBS check
  • Discounts at major supermarkets, cinemas, gyms, theme parks & more via Lifeways Rewards
  • Cycle to work scheme
  • Optional health cash plan for dental, glasses, therapy & more
  • Free access to our Employee Assistance Programme for advice & wellbeing support
Why Lifeways?
Because here, your work transforms lives. You’ll be part of a national network with the stability of a large company and the heart of a local service. We invest in your growth, your wellbeing, and your future.
