  • Shift Management: Cover various shifts, including early mornings, late evenings, and sleep-ins, and participate in residential trips as required.
  • Liaison and Advocacy: Work closely with senior management, local authorities, schools, healthcare professionals, and other external parties to advocate for and promote the welfare of the young people.
  • Cultural Promotion: Foster an inclusive workplace culture that values every team member's contribution and actively challenges discrimination.
  • Confidentiality: Maintain the highest levels of confidentiality in all aspects of your work.

What We Offer

  • Competitive Pay: £14.46 per hour, plus £66 per sleep-in (typically 6 nights per month).
