Here is your opportunity to start a career in rehabilitation support work. You do not need experience in care or support roles - we provide a full induction and specialist training and coaching.

Working in our specialist brain injury rehabilitation unit in south Wales is different to other kinds of support work. You're there to encourage and guide individuals, helping them gain the skills and confidence to live independently.

You will share the journey with these inspiring people as they overcome hurdles, achieve milestones, and reach the goals they've set. Many of the people we support only stay for three months before they are ready to move on. You can make a massive difference in that time.

We have full and part-time roles on offer.

Why join us?
Our fantastic service in Llanelli works alongside people with an acquired brain injury, autism, and learning or physical disabilities to help them live as independently as possible. Our teams across the UK support people to move forward with their lives. It's a special feeling to share their individual journeys and play a part in the progress they make. Our employees are incredibly passionate about the jobs they do - you'll find a strong team spirit across our services and amazing colleagues who always pull together and look out for each other.

The Role

We provide assessment and rehabilitation, continuing rehabilitation and a range of transitional living options to support those progressing to greater independence. When a service user is admitted to the BIRT Centre for Wales they undergo an in-depth neurobehavioural assessment to determine their potential for social reintegration and increased independence.

You'll get huge job satisfaction from seeing the people you are supporting do more for themselves and live the life they want to live. If you're interested in building a career, we're here to support you all the way on your own journey.

About you
