About Mirus

For 40 years, we have provided support so people can do the things they love, achieve their goals, and live good lives - always with voice, choice, and control.

We support people with learning disabilities, mental ill-health, and autistic people. Our services are shaped by the people who use them – we listen to and value each person's unique voice and experiences, creating an environment where everyone feels heard and understood.

We know that people have better lives when they feel part of their community – and the community benefits too! That's why we work with others to build networks that encourage people to explore opportunities, discover new interests, develop relationships, and enhance their independence.

Everything we do is guided by our values: Together, Respectful, Responsible, Empowering, and Courageous.

What will you be doing?  

• As a PBS & Autism Support Worker, you will support vulnerable people to be engaged in their local community. You will share in their hobbies and activities, enabling them to live fulfilling life. 

• As a PBS & Autism Support Worker you will develop, implement, and review a range of individual support plans to enable the person that you will support to lead a fulfilling life.

What are we looking for?  

Whether or not you have worked with people with learning disabilities, mental health, and autism - at Mirus we will provide you with all the training, coaching, and mentoring you need to be the best Support Worker you can be.
