Children's Residential Support Worker

Amberleigh Care is not the same as other residential child care settings in that we have a very defined profile of young people -- we do one thing -- and we are experts in that field. Our working model informs the way staff and trained and supported and our multidisciplinary teams are diverse in age, gender, experiences and backgrounds. **Reward:** * We offer some of the **highest hourly rates of pay** in our sector and because of our working model (with Waking Night roles) our staff are **not required to 'sleep in'**. We think this is important for work life balance * The Directors who 'own' the service, all work in it full time across both sites -- so there is **very visible, accessible and involved leadership** * There are **very extensive career development opportunities** -- access to QCF 3 as standard, degree qualifications for those that want this (we know this isn't everyones' cup of tea) but a very wide range of in house and external training and events. * As specialist practice settings, we are part of several rich networks that allow **our staff to get out and about and visit other services** * Staff (and boys) have a very big say in the decision making in our service, both day to day and more longer term. One method is our **annual employee survey** which informs our service plan.... Have a look at what staff told us in 2021 https://amberleighcare.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Employee-Survey-Results-Staff-Report-2021.pdf * We provide **all the usual benefits and perks** -- contributory pension, annual leave that builds with service, employee assistance scheme, loyalty and recruitment bonuses. * This is a **values based service,** doing specialist work that really makes successful difference to the lives of the young people. **Responsibilities:** * In essence you will be part of a team of carers (divided into sub teams) and working on a rota with a protected 3-day weekend off every 3 weeks to provide ongoing care and support to the young people. * The 'shift' has a Team Leader and/or Senior leading and coordinating and then a team of therapeutic carers -- typically 6-7 adults working together evenings and weekends, more around during office and school hours * Safeguarding and managing boundaries is a key part of the role -- but we do this with very open communication and active use of relationships -- we have very low levels of incidents, safeguarding referrals or more extreme challenging behaviours. * The role is varied from hour to hour, day to day -- on one level it is about (re)parenting the boys -- so everything from well-being, role modelling, guide, mentor, nurture, firm boundaries, listening, playing, helping with homework, cooking, gardening, gaming, bikes, walks and activities, bedtime stories and settling, the list is endless * As the role is varied, we need a variety of people on the team, people with different skills and talents, but also open to trying new things * We have our own school on site and our own therapy team -- so part of the role is about integrating with that wider team -- the whole service operates as a 'therapeutic community' and so we have a lot of spaces for staff to reflect on their work in teams and together with the boys. * This is work based on the relationships between everyone -- boys, staff, up, down and sideways -- we place a lot of support on helping staff develop their own self-awareness in relationship to others. **Requirements:** * We are interested to hear from people with a wider range of experiences and backgrounds * If you have previous experience of residential childcare, great -- we will help you learn about our practice model and approach. This work has some overlaps but is different to the work you have done before. * If you are considering a new career with us, great -- we can provide you with all the training to bring you into this exciting and varied sector and then build a career path from there * We require good basic English and IT communication skills -- we work in the 21st century and with teenagers, so we don't need to be experts, but we need to have the basics * You need to be over 21 years of age -- but there is no upper limit. * You need to hold a full driving licence (essential) * A sense of humour, life skills, broad interests, liking young people, resilience, creativity, problem solving etc -- the boys need a variety of role models around them. Job Types: Full-time, Permanent Pay: £26,290.00-£27,502.00 per year Benefits: * Casual dress * Company pension * Cycle to work scheme * Discounted or free food * Life insurance * On-site parking * Referral programme * Sick pay Application question(s): * Are you over 21 years of age (due to the nature of the work we do) Experience: * Residential Childcare: 1 year (preferred) Language: * English (required) Licence/Certification: * Full UK Driving Licence (required) Work authorisation: * United Kingdom (required) Work Location: In person Reference ID: Support Care Worker Oaks April 25
