Port Glasgow, United Kingdom CrossReach Full time

**Job reference**: 000869

**FTE Salary**: £28,769 - £31,553 plus sleepover allowance

**Location**: Port Glasgow - Carraig View

**Employment type**: Permanent

**Division**: Children and Families

**Hours Per Week**: 40

**Closing date**: 13/08/2023

**Full / Part time**: Full Time

**Are you patient, kind, compassionate, creative and motivated?**

Playing a game, eating lunch together, visiting a beach. They’re everyday things. But in this job, they’re powerful tools: for building trust, creating memories, and improving young lives. Because the children in our care have faced more challenges than most, and it’s our job to help them realise their potential and integrate back into their communities.

Here, at CrossReach’s residential service, children live in small community houses and learn at a new purpose-built school, all supported by caring professionals like you. It’s a place made with positive experiences and clear structure in mind - somewhere to heal in time, grow as individuals and succeed in the future.

Which makes this a role with incredible impact. You’ll act as a mentor for individual children, taking on key-worker responsibilities, assessing needs, and developing achievable care plans. With the help of the team around you, you’ll take a ‘whole-child’ approach - supporting them in everyday tasks, to gain positive experiences and improve relationships.

As such, this is a role for an experienced care professional, preferably with an HNC Social Care and SVQ Level 3 qualification. As we are always taking our young people on adventures, you will also need a driving licence.

Even though CrossReach is one of Scotland’s largest social care organisations with services across the country, we genuinely value the individual. For the children here, that means being treated with respect, whatever the circumstances. For professionals like you, it means being part of an environment where you can contribute ideas, have your needs recognised and achieve your ambitions.

Because as you support the children’s future, we’ll look after yours, with ongoing training and support for achieving additional qualifications. You'll also receive a range of benefits, including company pension, health cash plan, paid holiday and access to a range of leisure and retail discounts.

This post attracts a sleepover allowance of £52.48
