ShorehambySea, West Sussex, United Kingdom WSCC Full time

Welcome to West Sussex County Council, a dynamic and supportive environment where you can make a real difference in the lives of children and young people. As a Night Residential Childcare Worker, you will play a vital role in ensuring their physical and emotional night care needs are met.

Breakwater offers short to medium term residential care for children aged 12-17 on admission. You will be working with children who present a range of social, emotional, and mental health difficulties due to family breakdown and early childhood trauma. Children who are referred to Breakwater are often victims of exploitation, involved in crime, and may have experienced a breakdown in education provision. They may be at risk of becoming homeless and have limited support around them.

The key aspects of this role include managing challenging behaviour, providing personal care, advice, assistance, and support to ensure children and young people settle into night-time and morning routines. This includes washing, getting up in the morning, and getting ready for bed. You will also assist in the provision and preparation of meals in the Home.

This position requires a good standard of literacy, including the ability to write reports around individual young people and significant incidents. A Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare or equivalent qualification is preferred, and previous childcare experience, preferably in a residential setting, is essential. Awareness of the development needs of children in residential care and knowledge of Children's home regulations 2015 (England) are also required.

We offer a competitive salary of £25,584 - £25,992 per annum (pro-rata for part time, plus unsociable hours and sleep-in payments). In addition, we provide access to a Children's Residential Recruitment and Retention Payment scheme, which includes a £1,500 payment during your first 18 months. We also operate a guaranteed interview scheme for applicants that have a disability, are a veteran, or are a care leaver.
