High Peak, United Kingdom Derbyshire County Council Full time

A fantastic opportunity to be involved in the provision of responsive care and support, to children who have complex emotional and social needs using a considered and therapeutically informed approach to ensure children and young people are safe, well and cared for.

If successful, you will be working as part of a small staff team who provide support and a person-centred service to children and young people. This RCW post is shift based and includes sleeping in the home in order to provide 24hr care. It will also include weekend and bank holiday working, as well as attendance at team meetings and reflective practice sessions.

You must have the appropriate skills and experience to perform and work within an environment that can at times require using your own initiative along with an understanding of The Children Act, The Children’s Homes (England) Regulations 2015 and Quality Standards.

You must hold, or be already working towards or be willing to undertake and complete within 2 years of starting work at the home, the Level 3 Diploma for Residential Childcare (England). Equivalent qualifications (eg NVQ Level 3 Children and Young People’s Workforce Diploma and Social Care Pathway (England) 2015) will also be accepted, although you will need to be willing to complete any additional work to meet the required level, if required.
