Lockerbie, Dumfries and Galloway, United Kingdom CareTech Group Full time
About the Role

We are seeking compassionate and empowering Residential Childcare Support Workers to provide care and support for children and young people who are unable to live with their families.

Our children and young people have often been subject to adverse childhood experiences and trauma. We are looking for individuals who have a good understanding of the difficulties and challenges that children may face and have the confidence and ability to support them to recover, grow and flourish.

We provide children with a safe and nurturing environment within our services, and need caring and compassionate individuals who can demonstrate these attributes within a challenging yet rewarding environment.

About the Service

Cushathill home is a large detached 4-bedroom house situated in large grounds in a rural location. The service provides four medium to long-term placements for young people.

The service offers placements for children and young people who have social, emotional and behavioural needs and who may have experienced trauma. Our staff will be appropriately qualified and registered in accordance with SSSC regulations, or working towards this.

A regular programme of training, supervision and appraisal will be maintained. In addition to this, the house manager is available in the service as supernumerary.

Requirements
  • A sound understanding of the developmental needs and milestones for children and young people
  • Ability to communicate, engage and form positive relationships with children and young people, parents, carers and other professionals
  • Ability to produce clear and concise written reports and records to a good standard
  • A valid manual driving licence
Benefits
  • We provide a range of specialist training programmes and invest in your professional development.
  • We provide a comprehensive induction programme and support people to achieve professional qualifications where required.
  • This can be an HNC in Social Care, SVQ level 3 in Care or an equivalent qualification. We provide a competitive salary, including a sleepover allowance, and offer a full-time permanent contract.
  • Our employees have access to an employee assistance programme and pension scheme.

Due to the nature of the role, it will be necessary for all Residential Childcare Workers to be subject to a Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) check by Disclosure Scotland and achieve membership of the scheme prior to commencing work with us. CareTech will cover the cost of this check. You will also be required to be registered with the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC).
