Senior Project Worker - Millburn Close

Knockbracken area, Belfast

Full-time ¦ Rota-based shifts including evenings and weekends

Salary: £ 31,863.77 - £35,016.00

About the Role

Millburn Close is a community where recovery, independence and dignity sit at the heart of everything we do. We are now seeking an experienced and values-led Senior Project Worker to support the leadership and delivery of high-quality supported living services while empowering both service users and staff to thrive.

This role combines direct support delivery with leadership responsibilities, supporting the Manager and Deputy Manager in the effective day-to-day operation and development of the service.

About the Service

Millburn Close is a 24-hour supported living service for adults with complex and enduring mental health needs. Based in a quiet cul-de-sac on the edge of Knockbracken Healthcare Park, the service includes a mix of self-contained flats and bungalows for 26 individuals, along with shared communal areas, activity spaces, and a team office.

Our aim is to support each individual to live independently and with dignity, while providing person-centred assistance around their recovery, social inclusion, and emotional wellbeing.

What Makes Millburn Unique?

🏡 A calm, community-focused environment - Millburn feels more like a neighbourhood than a care facility. Each individual lives in their own flat or bungalow, with freedom and independence, but with the support of a consistent, values-led staff team.

🎨 Creativity and connection - Whether it’s running a quiz night, organising a trip to Portrush, or supporting someone to attend an art group, you’ll help bring meaning and routine to people’s lives.

👥 Strong multi-disciplinary links - We work closely with Community Mental Health Teams, inpatient units, and Care Managers to ensure holistic, recovery-focused support.

🌱 Team stability and progression - Many of our staff stay with us long-term because of the positive environment and the opportunities for learning, growth, and support.

Who We Support

We support adults aged between 18 and 76, living with complex mental health conditions including psychosis, depression, and substance use. Each person is unique and is treated with dignity, compassion, and respect.

The people we support value independence, friendship, structure, and being part of a community. Our team is there to help enable all of this - and more.
