**HEAD OF RESIDENCE**

**Oakhill Secure Training Centre (STC), Milton Keynes, MK5 6AJ**

**Circa £53,572.00 per annum with excellent Company benefits**

G4S Oakhill Secure Training Centre (STC) cares for children aged 12 to 18 years old who have been remanded or sentenced to periods of detention. The children in our care can be vulnerable and challenging, with a wide range of complex social and emotional needs. This is an environment that calls for high standards of social care and service delivery to provide a secure and stable environment for children to develop their life skills and address their previous behaviours. The regime at the centre aims to support change and learning, and balances safety, safeguarding, health and wellbeing.

We strive to help every child feel safe, giving them an opportunity to heal from trauma and feel supported in developing a more positive identity. We will ensure our children have equal access and opportunity for change and are celebrated for their strengths. We want the children in our care to leave better equipped for life emotionally, mentally, physically, and socially. Our hope is that they will go on to make decisions and life choices that will lead to increasingly positive and productive lives. We aim to support the constructive resettlement and transition of our children, whether returning to the community or moving to other custodial settings. We are committed to working in partnership with them and their families, significant others and wider community organisations, to develop a quality regime at the centre.

To succeed in this role, you will need to be a dynamic and engaging individual, with significant experience of leading a multi-disciplinary team with a track record of delivering performance to the highest standard. The role will require you to promote a child centred approach which prioritises both the safeguarding of the children’s welfare and wellbeing as well as ensuring that a stable and secure environment is provided for all the children and staff at the Centre.

It’s key that you are flexible and adaptable to deal with ever-changing scenarios within the Centre. You will be supported by an enthusiastic and committed team.

In this role, we expect you to create a positive and diverse working environment and lead on a number of critical areas:

- Promote a positive regime
- Developing Children in our care to maximise their potential
- Promoting equality, decency and wellbeing within the Centre
- Manage operational incidents and to be in charge of the Centre as part of a scheduled roster at evenings and weekends.
- Liaising with external bodies, developing effective customer/client relationships
- Building relationships within the community; have the ability to build rapport and influence key stakeholders and have a high degree of self-awareness.

This is a great opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of children by motivating, inspiring and leading them to success.

It is every employee’s responsibility to promote and safeguard the welfare of the children in our care; as such all employees are required to hold a current Enhanced DBS (Disclosure and Barring Scheme) Certificate.

G4S Care and Rehabilitation Services is committed to safeguarding and promoting the wellbeing of children and adults at risk and each employee is expected to support these goals.
