Senior residential childcare worker

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join a leading provider of children’s therapeutic services as a Senior Childcare Practitioner. This role offers a comprehensive training program and genuine career progression, allowing you to grow while making a meaningful difference in young lives.

Why Join Us?

If you’re a compassionate, positive role model, this role will strengthen your skills while offering hands-on experience in a rewarding environment. You'll work with young people who have experienced trauma, providing them with reliable, caring support to help them heal, develop, and achieve brighter futures.

What to Expect:

No two days are the same! One day, you might be going swimming, and the next, helping with homework—all while mentoring and guiding young people in their daily lives.

• Shift Pattern: Includes sleep-ins and flexible shifts across 7 days a week. Shifts may start at 10 AM, include a sleep-in, and finish at 10:30 AM the next day, or run from 10 AM to 10:30 PM. Please apply only if you have unrestricted working hours.
• Leadership & Guidance: Lead shifts, ensure legislative guidelines are met, and keep the safety and welfare of young people at the heart of everything you do.
• Team & Personal Development: Be a role model for young people and colleagues, offering guidance and fostering a supportive environment.

What We’re Looking For:

• Experience in children’s residential services
• A Diploma Level 3 (or equivalent qualification)
• Strong problem-solving skills and a positive, can-do attitude

Salary & Benefits:

• Starting salary: £27,939 – £31,904 per annum (dependent on experience/qualifications)
• Additional sleep-in payments: £60 per sleep-in (average of 7 per month)
• 30 days annual leave
