Youth Support Worker
3 months ago
Job description
The Amber Foundation offers supported accommodation to homeless, unemployed and disadvantaged young people (aged 16 to 30) who are facing multiple disadvantage including lack of training, education and employment, addiction and substance misuse problems, mental health difficulties and may have been involved in crime and offending behaviour.
We deliver a full-time and residential employability and well-being programme to young people designed to support them into independent accommodation and employment, training or education by the end of their stay.
We are looking to recruit Youth Support Worker(s) to cover a variety of shifts and flexible working patterns on a contracted or casual basis including weekends (days and nights), and weekdays shifts (night shifts).
You will be working in a team covering the centre over 24 hours split between night staff and day staff.
The role of the Youth Support worker is to work proactively, creatively and effectively alongside our young people to develop their skills and strengths and help them to gain the confidence they need to live independent and fulfilling lives.
You will be expected to work on a group and one-to-one basis with our residents and offer informal support, advice and guidance.
As a Youth Support Worker you will contribute to the smooth and safe running of the centre by providing consistency and reliability.
This will involve recording incidents, accidents and safeguarding issues, completing domestic and operational tasks and sharing information with relevant colleagues.
You will also undertake housing management and health and safety-related tasks as required.
The safe recruitment of staff in Amber is the first step to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people in our centres.
It is Amber's responsibility for safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and young people in its care. All applicants will need to evidence their suitability to work with children and young people.
