Working for Autism Initiatives is more than a job; it’s a career that supports people to live life to the full and gives you opportunities to progress as far as you want to go.

Autism Initiatives have successfully supported large numbers of apprentices in a variety of vocational areas. Due to our organisational commitment to learning, development and support from our CEO, Andrew Grainger, we were asked to be Employer Ambassadors in 2014.  As a highly recognised and committed employer we have attended many prestigious events in London and at the House of Commons.

Our permanent roles come with a wide range of generous staff benefits, here’s just a few of them:

• Comprehensive internal training to get you started
• Ongoing support and training when you’re in post
• Support to gain qualifications relevant to your role
• Competitive pay rates
• Generous annual holiday entitlement
• Pension Scheme – you will be enrolled into your local workplace pension scheme and your local payroll team will provide support
• Access to a free Employee Assistance programme with qualified advisers trained to help, 24 hours a day, any day of the year
• Staff Monthly Prize Draw
• Long service rewards
• Wagestream financial planning and support App (England and Scotland) – enables you to access money earned before pay day, set up savings and gain control of your finances

Permanent and bank / relief opportunities to suit you.

John, a senior support worker explains how our training programme has helped him advance his career. “Since being enrolled on a vocational programme I have been promoted to senior support worker. The course helped me acquire new skills and knowledge, which has empowered me to coach and mentor other staff.”

If you’re not looking for a permanent role we also have some contracts available that offer even more flexibility for when it’s just not the right time for you to have a permanent job. These are know as Bank, Relief or Additional Support Worker roles. These staff still get really great training and support and there’s always the option to move to a permanent role should your circumstances change.
