Real Care Children Services is a Crisis & Respite Service that supports young people whose current placements may be at risk and their local authority does not have a relocation plan for them.

This role also gives you flexibility to take on different assignments as they come in, where you can work across a range of settings from hospitals, children's homes, secure transportation or providing support in the family home.

You must also thrive in a team environment and be flexible, with the ability to work 24-48 hour shifts (with sleeps). Other assignments could be based local where you can work early/late/waking watch shifts (depending on the requirement of the job).

We are therefore seeking resilient support workers who have past experience with challenging behaviour.

- To meet the individual care and support needs of Young People using the service in a way that promotes, dignity, privacy, safety and independence.
- To ensure the effective use of resources in providing this care and support.

What we are looking for:

- You will hold a current driving licence
- Be able to work away from home as not all work is guaranteed locally. (Employees will be paid in full for all travel time incurred)
- You will consider yourself to me a resilient and reliable individual who is able to remain calm in situations that may be difficult and challenging
- Our young people are cared for on a 24 hour basis and you will be required to work some sleep-ins in order to support this.
- Receive double time pay for all bank holidays

Training and Development:

- We offer a fantastic range of learning opportunities throughout your career with us, including fully funded diplomas to ensure you're qualified and equip to carryout your role confidently.
