Would you like to make a difference to the most vulnerable children in care and help them flourish and achieve their potential?

Our Supported Accommodation service works to create and promote a positive environment for each young person in the independent living scheme. We are passionate about providing creative and ambitious opportunities for our young people, supporting them to thrive and develop in a nurturing and safe environment that promotes their emotional and physical well-being. Our services are well regarded, and we are proud of our reputation for not giving up on children with very complex backgrounds.

Our team works hard to improve the lives of the young people in our care. Our environment is unique, and the pressure is always on to keep ourselves and those in our care safe and successful.

We need highly motivated, resilient, and positive team members with humour, tenacity, and empathy to help our young people thrive. You may be new to the care profession or experienced and seeking a change. We value your life experiences, energy, personal strength, and positive mental attitude.

Our team works across the whole week, including weekends and bank holidays, typically on sleep-in shifts (from 9:30 until 24:00 and then 07:00 until 10:00 the following morning), though other hours are also available. We need people who can join our team on a casual basis to help cover staffing needs. There is always plenty of work if you want it.

Following a thorough induction and training programme, your duties will include:

1. Developing personal and practical skills to enhance independent living skills.
2. Engaging positively to encourage our young people in their development.
3. Reporting and recording key aspects of care and developing your professional skills through ongoing development.
4. Managing complex behaviour that can be challenging.

We Offer You:

1. Induction, regular training, and supervision.
2. Career progression and personal development.
3. NCC pension scheme.
4. Blue Light Card.
5. Opportunity to achieve the Level 3 Diploma for Residential Child Care.
