Are you looking for a new challenge and opportunity as either a current Senior or as an experienced Residential Support Worker looking for progression?

We are recruiting an experienced, resilient, and motivated individual with a passion to help and support children and young people aged from 10-18 years to achieve their true potential in life.

We have a fantastic opportunity for an experienced and motivated Senior Residential Support worker in a children & young people's residential setting within Gateshead. This home is for children and young people with complex Learning Disabilities who can display challenging behaviours.

Artemis Support is a local children’s home provider with an established reputation of over 10 years providing excellent care to children and young people across the Tyne & Wear location.

**The Role**:
As a senior member of staff, you will be able to lead, inspire, manage, guide, and support members of staff at the home and ensure a positive environment for the children and young people.

- Coordinate and facilitate staff team meetings.

You will support them in learning everyday skills and enjoy family meals together - or the odd takeout As a Senior Residential Support Worker you will also be involved in planning and delivering activities for young people internal and external to the home.
