Relief Residential Child Care Worker

Glasgow, United Kingdom Crossreach Full time

Are you patient, kind, compassionate, creative and motivated?

Playing a game, eating lunch together, visiting a beach. Theyre everyday things. But in this job, theyre powerful tools: for building trust, creating memories and improving young lives. Because the children in our care have faced more challenges than most, and its our job to help them realise their potential and integrate back into their communities.

Here, at CrossReachs residential service, children live in small community houses and learn at a new purpose-built school, all supported by caring professionals like you. Its a place made with positive experiences and clear structure in mind somewhere to heal in time, grow as individuals and succeed in the future.

Which makes this a job with incredible impact. Youll play a vital role in assessing childrens needs and supporting the Lead Practitioner in implementing positive and robust care plans. As part of a close-knit team, youll take a whole-child approach focusing on everything from completing everyday tasks to improving relationships.

Ideally, youll have an HNC Social Care and SVQ Level 3 qualification, plus some experience in a care or education role. However, if youve got an emphatic approach with the ability to see beyond behaviour to the reasons why, well provide full training for the role. Youll also need a driving licence.

As a relief member of staff, you will have the flexibility to work as and when you want, with as few or as many shifts as you are able. This is a great way to achieve a work life balance, fitting work in around your other commitments.

Even though CrossReach is one of Scotlands largest social care organisations with services across the country, we genuinely value the individual. For the children here, that means being treated with respect, whatever the circumstances. For professionals like you, it means being part of an environment where you can contribute ideas, have your needs recognised and achieve your ambitions.

If you have any queries regarding this role or our recruitment process, please contact the Recruitment team on .uk

As we do our work in Christs name you must be respectful of our Christian Ethos and be able to work within it.
