Do you want to work in a role that makes a positive difference to young people's lives? Dove Adolescent Services are looking for Residential Childcare Support Workers to join our team. As part of our team, you will help provide flexible, individual residential care packages for children and young people. To achieve the ambitions we have for our young people, we know it takes a passionate team who share our vision - to see children follow their dreams and reach their full potential. We invest heavily in the continued professional development of our employees - that's why our Operations Directors and the majority of our Home Managers all began their careers at Dove as Residential Childcare Support Workers and worked their way up.

As a Young Persons Support Worker, your day isn't always spent in one of our Residential Children's Homes… walking or biking the Pennine trails, catching the latest film at the cinema or thrill seeking at a theme park is all on the agenda - the list is endless and all depends on the interests of our young people.

Establishing and maintaining positive and trusting relationships with our young people
Encouraging the development of the individual interests of our young people

Understanding and commitment to the role - including some weekends and bank holidays
Undertake sleep-in duties as part of a flexible rota
Participating in activities and ensuring we provide young people with a place they feel at home
A desire to engage, motivate and encourage the young people in our homesWhat do we offer?

Full training provided to gain a recognised qualification
£45 paid per sleep in shift (average 5 a month)
Company pension
Employee discount scheme offering savings with over 740 retailers including all the major supermarkets, hundreds of high street shops and a wide range of restaurants.
Refer a Friend programme - unlimited at £500 for each person referred to work with us
Childcare voucher scheme

Meals includedWe are part of the Polaris Community, one of the largest providers of children's services, and our community of services span the length and breadth of the whole of the UK.

We're ambitious for our children and young people, families and staff, and believe in their futures.

We are proud of our quality - 100% of our inspected services are rated by Ofsted as good or outstanding.

Whether you're an experienced Residential Childcare Support Worker or want a new career path that allows you to have a positive impact on young people in your community, we'd love to hear from you.

The company is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff to share this commitment.
