Please note: Internal at risk or redeployee applicants will be seen in the first instance.
Please note: Internal applicants applying for a secondment opportunity must have approval from their line manager before submitting an application.
Due to the nature of the work, it is a legislative requirement that there be a five year gap between the oldest child on site and youngest member of staff. Due to this restriction applications will be considered from those aged 21 or over.
An exciting secondment opportunity has arisen within our residential service for a Senior Residential Support Worker.
You will be working within Children and Young People’s Service, caring for children and young people at Hebble Lodge, supporting them in all aspects of their lives. This will include supporting them in education, independent living skills, recreational activities and keywork sessions to help further their life skills.
You will work as part of a dedicated team responsible for caring for children and enabling them to achieve their personal best.
The successful candidate will confidently demonstrate the skills to lead on effective shift management. The role requirement includes the individual working shifts to cover sleep overs, evenings, weekends, School and Public holidays.
You will lead, coach and influence staff, supporting development opportunities and implement shared evidenced based practices efficiently within a timely manner.
The ideal candidate will have experience of assessing and respond safely when managing conflict, complaint and crisis situations to reduce or mitigate risks, employ a solution focused approach delegating tasks accordingly to ensure safe and best practices are employed in the absence of management.
If you have a Level 3 Diploma (QCF) qualified in Children and Young People’s workforce or nationally recognised equivalent and hold a full UK driving licence, we would welcome your application.
