Gheel Autism Services

Description

Gheel Autism Services work within a low arousal philosophy and our values form an integral part of who we are and what we do. We employ approximately 250 people in various capacities and locations in Dublin and North Kildare and are regularly on the lookout for like-minded individuals to join the team.

So why work for Gheel?

 

As leaders in our field we are always seeking to raise the bar in terms of service provision and best practice. Innovative thinkers who believe that the people we support are partners in, and not recipients of their service are welcome at Gheel. If you think in a similar way this is organisation for you.

As such, we invest in staff and provide a suite of relevant CPD training courses such as Autism Awareness and Studio III training focused on further developing the skills and competencies of staff which are necessary to meet the varied and individual needs of people accessing services. 

Employment Terms and Conditions

 

As a grant aided agency, we operate on the HSE consolidated pay scales. Salaries and incremental credit are awarded based on relevant qualifications and experience. In addition to basic salary and premium payments, we offer staff an excellent employee benefits package with generous annual leave entitlements and further education opportunities.
