Why choose Best Lives
A career with purpose
Working with us is more than just a job. It’s about knowing what you do truly matters. Every single role plays a part in helping people to live their best lives. We support this goal by creating a workplace built on trust, where every team member has a voice and feels valued.
Opportunities to grow
We believe in investing in our people. Our dedicated Learning & Development Team is here to support you through your professional development. You can expect clear routes to Lead Support Worker and Area Coordinator roles, alongside apprenticeship and qualifications for our business teams.
Flexibility that fits your life
We believe work should fit around life, not the other way round. That’s why we offer flexible contracts, varied shift patterns, and different locations to suit your lifestyle. Many roles have no set shifts, and our business teams can adjust their start and finish times. If you prefer ad-hoc work, our bank staff roles let you pick up shifts when it works best for you.
A team that values you
Hard work and dedication doesn’t go unnoticed at Best Lives. We recognise and reward our committed colleagues. From long service awards to our annual Colleague Recognition Awards, we celebrate those who make a difference. On top of that, we offer a range of benefits designed to support your wellbeing and financial security.
Volunteer with us
Volunteering with Best Lives is a rewarding way to make a difference while gaining valuable experience. Your contribution can have a lasting impact on the lives of people we support. By assisting with projects or offering companionship, you help us achieve our mission.
It is also a great opportunity to meet new people and be part of a welcoming community. We would love to have you on board, even if you can only spare a few hours a week.
