Welcome and thank you for your interest in becoming a Support Worker.
Our rapid growth over the past decade has only been possible because of the talent and dedication of our fantastic colleagues.
Every day, our staff support people with learning disabilities and mental health illness to achieve their potential. Whether you want to move into care work for the first time, or you already have experience and want to find the right place to progress, we welcome people who share our absolute commitment to quality and respect for every individual.
We offer a highly supportive environment in which you'll constantly learn and develop, and gain the care qualifications you want to achieve. All of our Managers started with us as Support Workers, so they're excellent examples of the opportunities for promotion at CTTM. As an established Privately Owned Organisation we can offer our team members job security but most importantly we promise to listen.
