About Albany House

Albany House is a small, CQC‑registered service that supports up to eight people living with severe and enduring mental illness.

  • Carrying out assessments and developing personalised support and safety plans
  • Encouraging people to manage their mental and physical wellbeing

  • Contributing to safeguarding and promoting a safe, supportive environment
  • Keeping accurate records, monitoring progress and sharing information with the team
  • Helping improve the service by offering feedback and supporting colleagues

What we’re looking for:

  • Experience supporting people with mental illness or in a social care setting (paid or voluntary)
  • Great listening skills, empathy, patience, and kindness
  • Ability to work with digital systems (Microsoft applications, email, internet)
  • A commitment to our values and willingness to learn

If you have transferable skills and a passion for helping others, we’d love to hear from you!
