**Are you a passionate and inspirational senior care worker who is dedicated to supporting and caring for young people? Do you have what it takes to make a positive difference to the lives of children and young people?**

At Catholic Care we are looking for a senior residential childcare worker at our residential home for boys aged 11-18.

Our trauma informed staff specialise in providing nurture and care to children and young people who are looked after. We work really hard to create a home environment that exceeds the needs of the children and young people - enabling them to express their characters, feel safe and enrich their lives.

The children and young people that we care for can demonstrate a wide range of behaviours and can be very demanding of time, attention, and emotions. A senior residential childcare worker advocates pro-actively for each young person's needs, rights and views and ensure that these are met.

They also make certain that each young person's individuality, difference and diversity are always appreciated and that our young people are provided with equal opportunities and are not discriminated against. Senior residential childcare workers encourage each young person to be involved in all aspects of their care. This will involve skill development, problem solving and assessment of risk, while being mindful of their individual capabilities.

The senior role is to support the Registered Manager and Deputy Manager in providing the best quality childcare in a safe and trauma informed care focussed environment for the young people. When on shift you will have initial responsibilities for monitoring and supervision of staff and take responsibility for the day to day management, and guidance of colleagues whilst ensuring the welfare and care of the young people.

You will have, or be prepared to work towards, Diploma level 5 in Leadership and Management in Residential Children’s Care and understanding and experience of Ofsted regulation.
