York, United Kingdom City of York Council Full time

Do you have a background of working with children and Young People?

Would you like to join us and be part of our brand-new service ‘Together We Can’?

This innovative new service provides support to children and young people between 11-17 years through outreach, residential homes and the staying close service. It follows a forward thinking new model involving working with a multi-disciplinary team in the home.

We aim to support young people in achieving York Children’s Services vision that all young people should be able to ‘Stay Home, Come Home, Belong.’
- Stay Home - Young People remaining at home or in their naturally connected network.
- Come Home - Young People returning to their family or network where it is safe to do so or at the very least returning to York when this is in line with their wishes.
- Belong - Young People being connected to their network and community and supported to learn.

**The role**:
Residential Care Practitioners support children and young people, with a complex range of needs due to, but not exclusively, early trauma and attachment.

These children and young people often struggle to build relationships and make sense of their emotions which can result in complex and risk-taking behaviour.

You will work as part of a specialist team (which includes clinical psychologist, police liaison and speech and language therapist) to support children, young people and their families who are on the edge of care, in care or leaving care and play a crucial role acting as a key worker and developing meaningful relationships built on compassion, respect and trust.
- Community Support: providing ongoing support to young people and their families who are on the edge of care or supporting them back to their family home or supported lodgings.
- Residential Care: providing exceptional care and support when a young person requires co-ordinated support whilst living in a residential setting.
- Therapeutic Care: to support a young person requiring therapeutic care, to access the relevant services and provide oversight and pathway co-ordination in and out of health services in conjunction with multiagency care plans.

**Our offer to you**:
We have flexibility to consider working patterns and shifts to fit in with you, these will include some evening, weekend and night working for which there will be additional allowances paid. Full time and part time positions available. These can be discussed at interview.

Generous annual leave allowance, supportive team environment and managers, learning and development opportunities, family friendly policies, health and wellbeing initiatives and an extensive staff benefits rewards and savings package.

Applications are welcomed from experienced care practitioners however, if you have experience of working with children and young people in an education/youth setting and have transferable skills we would like to hear from you. If successful we will support you in developing into this role. You will need to be willing to work towards a Level 3 diploma for Residential Childcare.

**Applications will be considered on a weekly basis.**

Ths job is suitable as a job share opportunity.

As this role is public facing, applicants will need to demonstrate, at interview, their competency to converse and provide advice and guidance to members of the public, in spoken English to CEFR level C2: Can express him/herself spontaneously at length with a natural conversational flow, avoiding or backtracking around any difficulty so smoothly that the person with whom they are conversing is hardly aware of it.

Closing date: Rolling ad 2 June 2024
