Aberdeen, United Kingdom Aberlour Children’s Charity Full time

**Disability**Residential Child Care**

**ABERDEEN**

Relief, £14.39 per hour

**About Our Options Aberdeen Service**:
Options Aberdeen was developed by a dynamic partnership of Aberlour working with Aberdeen City Council and Grampian Autistic Society. Providing a mix of residential short breaks, care at home and care in the community we offer services that best suit the needs of the children and young people we support. When their child is with us, parents and families can relax in the knowledge that their child is getting the best possible nurturing care in a ‘home from home’ environment. This maximises the benefit they gain whilst they get a crucial break to recharge and refresh their batteries enabling them to provide the needed high level of support for their child when they return home from their short break.

Our exciting programme enables children with complex disabilities to have new experiences and make new friends. The Hub also provides holistic family support through a menu of services that support and complement direct support offered to children and young people. Working with the children is not a ‘quick fix’ but a long-term endeavour supporting them to make small incremental change that over time becomes significant. The role is challenging but also immensely rewarding. Options Aberdeen has a strong reputation and as part of the team, staff who already have some experience will be supported to consolidate and build on their skills enhancing their ability to take advantage of any future new opportunities and challenges.

Family feedback:

- Aberlour Options Aberdeen for us has been a godsend. Our lives have changed at home. They listen to your views and try and help with whatever is the problem.” Parent._

We have a strong reputation in supporting young people with high levels of complex needs, supporting them to grow, learn and maximise their potential. We feel every child has the right to flourish.

Our relief workers play a crucial role in supporting our teams. This work is offered on a casual, hourly paid basis to provide cover during staff absence and/or particularly busy periods. Ideally, you will have experience of direct work with children and families and/or experience of working with children or adults with a learning disability.

At Aberlour we want to make sure every child and young person has the love, support, and opportunity they need to reach their potential. If you share the same vision, we want you to join our team.



**What we offer...**:
As well as a supportive team and excellent training opportunities, we want all our employees to feel valued and rewarded for the vital work they do..

Aberlour is committed to the safeguarding and welfare of all our service users and uses a thorough and rigorous recruitment and selection process including PVG Scheme checks to ensure this commitment is not compromised.

**Applications to be returned by midnight on Sunday 3rd March 2024**

**Interviews to be held on 20th and 21st March 2024
