Are you looking for a new challenge? Do you enjoy working with children & young people and positively impacting their lives? We have an exciting opportunity for a Project Worker 1 to join our friendly, passionate and dedicated team at our Include Me 2 Service based in Lancashire on a part time, permanent basis.
About the Service:
Our Include Me 2 Service is a short breaks service facilitating group sessions for children & young people aged 4 – 18 with a wide range of Special Educational Needs/disabilities offering them opportunities to get involved in play and leisure activities such as arts & crafts, cooking and trips out in the community whilst offering valuable respite to their families. We are a fun-loving team looking for an enthusiastic, happy and kind individual to join us!
Location:
Lancashire locality covering Preston, Chorley, South Ribble, West Lancashire, Burnley and Pendle.
Working Pattern:
30 hours a week to include delivery sessions 3 evenings (7:30pm/8pm finish) and 1 weekend day per week. Other days can be flexible/discussed at interview.
Essential Requirements to evidence in your written application:
Experience of working with children & young people (gained either in employment or volunteer capacity)
Ability to work well as part of a team
Ability to communicate effectively with children & young people
Ability to demonstrate a good understanding of safeguarding and the commitment to adhere to Barnardo's safeguarding & child protection policies/procedures.
Awareness of various factors impacting the families we work with such as poverty
Most importantly, you will need to enjoy the challenges and rewards of working with children & young people!
A car driver would be preferable, but not essential.
Some of the main responsibilities include but are not limited to:
To contribute to the planning of sessions and activities.
Delivering and recording group sessions.

Pay & Reward Framework
We know that our colleagues go above and beyond in delivering our vital work, driven by their passion and commitment to Barnardo's values. We also know that we can only realise our ambitions and achieve better outcomes for more children, thanks to the talent, hard work and creativity of our people.
For all these reasons, we are committed to a new approach to pay and reward, to ensure it is fair, attractive and progressive, which was rolled out in April 2023. This is a positive change for the charity, and a part of our People & Culture Strategy. It will assist us in supporting colleagues to belong, thrive and grow in their colleague journey at Barnardo's and in time will offer clear routes of progression for colleagues in both their career and their pay.
Whilst the full pay band and salary range is advertised, our approach to starting salaries is to appoint between the minimum to mid-point of the pay band – this ensures that pay steps are available to reward our colleagues annually based on their contribution to excellence and alignment to our values and behaviours. More details on Barnardo's pay framework can be found upon application.
