Key Responsibilities:
- Build trusting relationships with children and young people based on respect and consistency
- Support with emotional wellbeing, behavioural challenges, and therapeutic care plans
- Promote education, independence, and positive social development
- Oversee daily routines including meals, activities, and appointments
- Mentor and guide junior team members
- Ensure the home meets all safeguarding and regulatory standards
Requirements:
- QCF Level 3 in Children and Young People's Workforce or equivalent
- Experience in residential childcare
- Calm, resilient, and confident in managing challenging behaviour
- Strong team player with excellent communication skills
- Committed to providing high-quality care and helping young people thrive
What We Offer:

- Ongoing training and clear opportunities for career development
- A deeply rewarding role where you make a real and lasting difference
