Job role: Senior Residential Youth Support Worker

Contract: Full time, Permanent

Location: Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire

**Salary**: £30,496 - £34,325 per annum (Inclusive of sleep-in payments and attendance bonus)

Working in our residential children’s homes at Homes2Inspire means working for a dedicated team providing nurturing and supportive environments for young people in our care. We are committed to helping build a brighter future for our young people by offering stability, guidance, and pathways to becoming well-rounded adults - and our support staff are there every step of the way

The nature of the role varies in pace, and you will be working directly with vulnerable young people who have adverse backgrounds and require a trauma-informed nurturing environment. For some young people, the behaviours caused by previous trauma can mean that it is too risky for them to live with others, and smaller homes with higher staffing ratios are required to ensure that young people in need have a place to call home and the support system in place to work through difficult emotions and behaviours.

If you are passionate about helping young people and colleagues reach their full potential and have experience working with young people in a residential setting or transferrable experience in a similar role with young people, we would love to hear from you. Homes2Inspire are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and adults.

What you’ll bring:

- Minimum 1 years' experience working with children and young people in a residential setting
- QCF Level 3 Residential Childcare or equivalent (In line with Ofsted requirements)
- Resilience to be able to deal with challenging situations.
- Positive role model - honesty and empathy are a must.
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
- Willingness to work flexible hours, including evenings and weekends to meet operational needs of the home
- A full UK Driving Licence (preferred)

Key responsibilities:

- Providing support to the Deputy Manager and Home Manager of the home whilst on shift and performing senior duties as directed
- Helping to create a positive and safe environment for each young person
- Maintaining good professional practices in accordance with Homes2Inspire expectations, Ofsted Regulations and the Quality Care Standards for children’s homes
- Contributing to reviewing and implementing young person’s care plans and risk assessments
- Forming effective relationships with young people, their families (if appropriate) and external agencies

What We Offer:

- The chance to have a meaningful impact on the lives of young people
- 3 weeks of off-the-job training with an extensive training course and support to prepare you for the role
- Funded opportunity to achieve QCF Level 3 Residential Childcare qualification
- Continued professional development opportunities
- Supportive and collaborative team environment
- Attendance bonus scheme offers earning potential of an additional £1400 per annum
- 28 days annual leave inclusive of bank holidays with increases with length of service (up to 33 days after 5 years’ service) and ability to purchase additional annual leave
- Awards & Recognition - From Long Service Awards to Non-Absence Awards, we recognise the hard work and effort our people put and ensure we reward where we can
- Medicash - claim back an annual cost of everyday healthcare, such as dental, optical treatment and specialist treatment for yourself and your family members
- Wellbeing Support - Employee Assistant Program (EAP) 24/7 access to support via phone, sms, whatsapp and live chat. 8 free counselling sessions/short-term solutions provided. There is also an internal health and wellbeing team who are on hand and available to provide professional help and support during difficult times
