Who We’re Looking For
We’re always looking for people who are compassionate, dependable, and ready to make a real difference. You don’t need years of experience, just a willingness to learn, a calm, thoughtful approach, and a genuine commitment to supporting others.
Our best team members come from all walks of life. What they share is a belief in dignity, inclusion, and structure, and a desire to help autistic people live safe, meaningful, and empowered lives.
Training & Career Progression
You’ll never be left to figure things out alone. At Fairmont, we offer comprehensive training from day one, including autism-specific modules, Positive Behaviour Support (PBS), communication strategies, and sensory awareness.
New starters are supported through a structured induction, shadowing, and hands-on mentoring. As you grow, we provide supervision, reflective practice, and clear routes to progression, from Support Worker to Senior, Team Leader, or Manager roles. Whether you’re starting fresh or returning to care, we’ll help you build a career you can be proud of.
