Last year, we helped more than 670,000 children and families across the UK. From direct work in communities to national campaigning, we are focused on making sure every child has a safe and happy childhood, and the foundations they need to thrive.

**Why Action for Children?**

Working here is more than a job. Everyone in the Action for Children family is passionate about protecting and supporting children. It's the sense of purpose that drives us every single day. Because we know that, when we work together, we can make a huge difference to bring lasting improvements to vulnerable children's lives.

**A bit **about** the **role**

We work directly with children and young people with complex learning disabilities and challenging behaviour. We work in partnership with CAMHS LD and our own Behaviour Consultant to develop and deliver person centres support plans that offer consistency and clear outcomes for all out young people.

We firmly believe that behaviour is communication and work to identify what the young people are trying to tell us through their behaviour and support them to communicate that in a positive way.

Working in residential care is both challenging and rewarding. Our aim is to give every young person we work with the support and guidance to reach their potential and support their aspirations for a positive future, and this is a vital part of our work.

**How you'll help to create brighter futures**

As a Residential Worker (nights) your responsibilites will be;
- Helping young people in all aspects of their lives.
- Having good communication skills and the ability to engage well with both young people, colleagues and other professionals.
- Being a creative thinker and having a solution focused approach.
- Using your skills, knowledge and experience to meet the needs of young people at night.

**Let's talk **about** you**
- A positive approach, providing a fun environment for all the children in our care.
- Ideally, a HNC and SVQ 3 in a social care discipline (or a qualification which would meet the registration requirements) or a commitment to working towards these.
- Experience of working with children and young people with disabilities
- Safeguarding knowledge
