Residential Child Care Worker
7 months ago
We are recruiting for our residential children’s homes in **Leeds**. We are a social enterprise that provides caring, bespoke residential homes for young people aged 7-18 who have had a difficult start to life. You will join a team of compassionate, child-focused adults whose mission is to give the best experiences for our children and young people. You will also be supported as part of a bigger team with our integrated services including our Clinical and education colleagues. We specialise in trauma-informed care following our therapeutic model to help their lives around.
You will not need specific experience for this role - we will train, teach, and guide you with all you will need to know to be successful. We are looking for people who want to be effective on a young person, who are patient and resilient when times are challenging.
As a Children Support Worker, you will be involved in events and activities including:
- Kayaking, rock climbing, swimming, skating, arts and crafts, beach adventures and walks in the forest, movie nights, and even camping in the back garden
- you name it we will do it
- Being a role model guiding and supporting our children to make good choices.
- Cleaning, cooking meals, maintaining the home, and learning new skills like nutritional meal planning, first aid, Health & Safety, and gardening: the list is endless.
- Developing your professional career as a children’s support worker through the Level 4 apprenticeship in residential childcare
- Clear career pathways for your future development
Part of the role involves some overnight stays in the home. You will need to do between 2 and 3 of these ‘sleep-ins’ per week, so the salary advertised includes the payment for an average of 8 sleep-ins per month. For each sleep-in you receive an additional £50 per night - if you completed eight sleep-ins per month, that's equivalent to £4800 p.a.
You will need to have good written, verbal and IT communication skills, know how to have fun and understand the importance of play to children.
We will support you to achieve your Level 4 Qualifications. Ideally, you will have a full driving license and be over the age of nineteen.
**Why join Five Rivers?**
We are a social enterprise. Our homes are run by kind, compassionate and resilient people who give children a sense of security they may have struggled to find until now. These individuals open their hearts to the children they look after, forming deep connections that help turn children’s lives around. They are dependable, responsible role models and their positive influence can last a lifetime.
We are an award-winning organisation: we are proud to hold the Investors in People Gold Award, Children & Young People’s Employer of the Year, and Apprenticeship Providers’ Employer of the Year.
**Looking after you is important, so we offer benefits to provide you with a range of support.**
- 30 days (22 days plus 8 bank holidays) annual leave (plus a holiday purchase scheme)
- 3-week rolling rota given 6 weeks in advance.
- £50 per sleep-in payment on top of your salary
- Simplyhealth - medical cash-back plan
- Perk Box - 100’s of high street and web-based discounts
- Ongoing training and support through our Learning & Development Team, with in-house and external trainers
