Want to work in a children’s home that makes a positive, lasting difference to children’s lives?

Are you an experienced Residential Worker or Youth Worker, or do you have no experience but are looking to build a career in residential care?

We need determined, resilient people to be long lasting, significant adults in a child’s life in our children's home in Southery, Downham Market.

With our structured pay-scales and clear career progression paths, we can support you with the training and experience to develop into a Senior Residential Support Worker, Deputy Manager or Residential Manager. We know that children benefit from having consistent, long-term adults in their lives, therefore your career progression, happiness and wellbeing is paramount to us.

- **Compass make houses, homes** - We invest heavily in ensuring homes are beautifully decorated, allowing children to express their characters, feel safe and enrich their lives.
- **Generous budgets devoted to children** - Each of our homes are given substantial investment to allow for all children to really experience a childhood, including holidays abroad, recreational activities and special events.
- **Direct therapeutic work with children - **We aim to provide all children with therapy, driven by industry leading psychologists and practise. This will include therapeutic training for all staff.
- **Bespoke systems **- Spend more time working directly with children rather than duplicating reports with our bespoke, time saving incident reporting system.
- **Skills to Care Induction** - All new starters complete 2 separate weeks of classroom based training and a week of shadow shifts to best prepare them for the new role.

**Perks we offer**
- **Earn up to £26,896 (O.T.E, inclusive of sleep ins)** We used structured pay grades, so salary is based on your training and experience so that you are always paid fairly.

- **Discounts & Awards** - Access to hundreds of discounts and benefits through Perkbox, as well as the chance to win up to £150 in vouchers every month from our REACH Awards.
- **Life Assurance Scheme** - 3 x annual salary after successful completion of your probation review.
- **Health and Wellbeing Day** - Additional day’s leave to support your mental health.
- **Increased Holiday**:

- 224 hours holiday increasing gradually to 248 hours after 4 years’ service.
- **Recommendation Payments** - Earn up to £3,250 by recommending a foster carer or up to £1,000 by recommending a full-time staff member.

**What will I do as a Residential Support Worker?**
- Using your experience and skills - further developed with our support and training, you will assist with the care of our children and young people.
- All of our homes adopt therapeutic practise, giving you the opportunity to develop into a specialist care provider. Training also includes reflective practise to consistently improve the way we care for children.
- You will create positive relationships with the children, meeting their needs and safeguarding them at all times.
