Activities Coordinator

As an Activities Coordinator, you'll support our Service Users to take part in activities that are meaningful to them. Your role will focus on supporting people to maximise their independence, build their everyday living skills and live their best life.

In the role, you'll plan and deliver one-to-one and group activities, based on people's unique needs and interests.

A big part of our care involves empowering people to be involved in their local community. As an Activities Coordinator, you could support people to take on new hobbies, to meet their friends, to go out for tea, to visit their regular hairdresser or to stay fit at the local gym - whatever they choose to do!

You'll also arrange group activities and parties in the home to promote a sense of community.

Being an Activities Coordinator at Exemplar is extremely rewarding. You'll see the difference you make each and every day, which provides great job satisfaction.
