We are part of the National Fostering Group - the UK’s largest independent fostering family.

We want someone who places a focus on the positive outcomes of our children and takes responsibility for helping improve the lives of our young people. You will also support children and young people participating in Duke of Edinburgh.

You will be able to work closely and cooperatively with colleagues, have good communication skills, a professional approach to working with children, young people and foster carers, openness to extending your knowledge and skills - and a genuine desire to fulfil the responsibilities of the support worker role.
