York, York City, United Kingdom City of York Council Full time

The short breaks service for children with disabilities within the City of York have an exciting opportunity for a waking night support worker to join our short breaks team in York.


This service is based within a purpose built centre for children with disabilities, which ensures services for children with disabilities are innovative, flexible and integrated.


Our Short Breaks offer provides services including community and residential short breaks provisions for children and young people with autism, learning disabilities and/or additional and complex health needs.


Whilst experience of working with children with disabilities is preferred, it is not essential as training and support will be provided.

Experience in social care, enthusiasm, and a passion for working with children to support their development is essential.

The role of a waking night support worker is an invaluable one.

It is rewarding, complex and challenging and you will play an essential role in providing support and direct care to children during the night.


You will be supported by a senior team, have a thorough induction into your role and also have opportunities for supervision, training and development to support the work that you do.

You will be required to study towards a level 3 qualification if you do not already have one.

You may be expected to attend some shifts and meetings during the day and complete an induction before your waking night shifts.

This position is available as a job share opportunity.


The Council is committed to investing in the talent and wellbeing of our staff and can offer a generous annual leave allowance, access to the Local Government Pension Scheme, comprehensive Health & Wellbeing initiatives and a reward package which recognises your contribution.

We can offer flexible working practices, community engagement and volunteer activities and, as part of our commitment to you, promote continuous Learning & Development.

In addition we also offer a growing range of discounts, rewards and savings.

Closing date:
Sunday 16 June at 12 midnight

Interview date:
WC 24 June
