Residential Childcare Worker (Full-Time Qualified) - Ref: CH02323 - (2300007K)

Description

**Residential Childcare Worker (Full-Time Qualified) - Ref: CH02323**

Salary G6 £25,878 - £30,151 plus 5% enhancement for unsociable hours and additional payments for sleeping in duties.

**Qualified starting salary - £27,852**

Are you resilient, robust and resourceful? Honest, reliable and compassionate? Flexible and hardworking? Do you have any experience working with children? If your answer is yes then we would like you to consider a career in children's residential services.

**How many hats can you wear in one day?**

We are looking for people to join our residential team within Walsall where we currently operate two Children's Homes and are in the process of opening 2 additional homes in the near future.

Our work is varied where no two days are the same, for example today involves:

- Helping cook the dinner
- Helping with homework
- Playing games in the garden
- Supporting complex health needs

But tomorrow may bring;
- Attending a professionals meeting
- Managing challenging behaviour
- Planning an outing or a holiday

**The Role**

You will be responsible for the direct care of children, provide high levels of engagement and be highly ambitious in helping them to achieve positive outcomes.

We provide residential care for looked after children and overnight short breaks for children who have disabilities and complex needs. Our focus is directed towards a child centred approach where we actively promote children’s rights. We deliver our services in safe personalised small groups where the care is aimed at supporting children’s welfare.

For additional information about the role, please see the Job Description & Employee Specification

**Important Information**

Our homes can accommodate children up to 18 years of age. Due to the nature of this post, the DFE minimum standard states that an employee must be four years older than the oldest resident therefore applicants must be 22 years of age or older.

These posts are mainly evenings, weekends and includes sleep in shifts where you will be paid a 5% enhancement for unsocial hours and a sleep in payments. Salary is pro-rata to hours worked.

Walsall Council takes seriously the responsibility to safeguard and promote the welfare of all the children, young people entrusted to our care, and it is our expectation that all staff will share this commitment. We will ensure continuous development and improvement of robust recruitment processes and procedures that promote a culture of safeguarding amongst our workforce. Completion of an enhanced Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) check is a requirement for working with children and young people.

Note: Applicants appointed to posts that require an enhanced DBS clearance must declare any periods of time that they have lived, studied or worked abroad and be prepared to provide an Overseas Criminal Records Certificate (OCRC) or a Statement of Good Conduct (SOGC) relating to anytime they were overseas.
