Because we know that, when we work together, we can make a huge difference to bring lasting improvements to vulnerable children's lives.

**A bit about the role**

- Attendance at professional meetings including reviews, court work etc.
- Lead shifts with the primary aim of the provision of a high-quality service.
- Supervise and guide staff as required, in accordance with Action for Children policies and procedures.

**About the Service**:
Our Place is a 3-bed permanent residential home for children and young people aged between 8 - 18 who have various learning disabilities. Action for Children strive to create a homely and supportive environment where the children can thrive and develop by us supporting them with household tasks and all aspects of their care.

Here at Our Place, we focus on making sure the children's voices are always heard and pride ourselves on providing a collaborative and caring service. We work hard to ensure the children in our care are experiencing a safe and happy childhood in a friendly, warm, and inclusive environment.

Shifts are 7.30-20.00, 9.30-21.30 and sleep ins are 10.00 till 10.30 the next day. However, due to the role being a leadership role there is scope for flexibility and some hours will be admin hours.
