Residential Worker - Shift Leader
Job description
37 hours per week
This is an exciting time to join Bridgend CBC as we continue to remodel the way we meet the needs of children who need our support in line with the Welsh Government agenda to end profit in children’s residential services in Wales.
Golygfa’r Dolydd is a fun and vibrant place to work. The service requires that all members of the team are committed, compassionate and ultimately put the needs of the children first. Team members have to be committed to working in a person centred way in order to meet the needs of the children. Every member of the team has to work well with others and work well in a team.
Golygfa'r Dolydd (Meadows View) is a new purpose-built home that provides care and support for young people from 6 to 17 years of age. The service is made up of two distinct parts, the assessment provision and the emergency provision. Up to seven young people of any gender can be placed at the service at any one time: four in the assessment unit and three in the emergency unit.
Golygfa'r Dolydd offers a therapeutic environment for children and young people, using a trauma informed approach to provide the most effective support possible. Enabling them to understand their individual circumstances, develop resilience and self-care skills.
Golygfa'r Dolydd has an onsite Board-Certified Behaviour Analyst who co-ordinates the assessment and therapeutic interventions for young people and will work closely with the staff to develop bespoke Positive Behavioural Support Plans designed to reduce challenging behaviours and support positive behavioural change.
As a shift leading children’s residential worker you will need to be suitably qualified in line with the qualification frameworkand have adequate experience to fulfil this role. As shift leader you will support the senior in organising and planning any given shifts. This will often be in place of the senior when they are not there. This will see the candidate be responsible in leading shifts, having to potentially manage admissions, departures and working with other professionals such as social workers, police, health and education professionals as we meet the needs of the children residing at Golygfa’r Dolydd. The successful candidate will need to be registered with Social Care Wales.
Do you feel that you want to be at the centre of the on-going development of this innovative approach to care? Are you able to work on a flexible basis? Can you work to the highest of standards, ensuring that the home remains compliant with Regulatory Requirements and supports children and young people to achieve the best possible outcomes? If so, we would love to hear from you!
The ability to greet customers through the medium of Welsh is a requirement for this post.
Protecting children, young people or adults at risk is a core responsibility of all council employees.
An Enhanced Children and Adults Barred list criminal records check by the Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) is a requirement for this post.
Sleeping In, Weekend Working are a requirement of this post.
