Bury St, Suffolk, United Kingdom Break Charity Full time
About the Role

We are seeking a dedicated and compassionate Support Worker to join our team at Break Charity. As a Support Worker, you will play a vital role in providing care and support to young people living in our children's home.

Our young people have experienced trauma, and they require a safe and nurturing environment to heal and thrive. As a Support Worker, you will work closely with a tight-knit team of colleagues to build relationships and trust with the young people, providing them with the support and guidance they need to overcome their challenges.

You will be a positive role model, encouraging the young people to develop their own identity and participate in new experiences. You will also work closely with our therapeutic services to provide trauma-informed care and support.

To be successful in this role, you will need to be patient, empathetic, and able to work effectively in a team environment. You will also need to be able to manage challenging situations and provide emotional support to the young people.

What We Offer

As a Support Worker at Break Charity, you will have access to a range of benefits, including:

  • Free, career-enhancing qualifications
  • A "golden hello" scheme, welcoming you to our services with a payment of £500 one month after your start date and a second £500 at the six-month mark
  • A referral scheme, offering the same two payments if you recommend a contact who goes on to be employed by Break in care services
  • 31 days annual leave per year, including bank holidays
  • Annual leave purchase
  • Additional service-related holiday from 2 years
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
  • Company-funded medical cash plan
  • Enhanced sick pay and family-friendly leave
  • Pension salary sacrifice
  • Life assurance to the value of 3x your annual salary
  • Access to the Blue Light benefits platform, enabling you to access discounts across a range of shops, venues, and services
  • Access to multiple Wellbeing initiatives
  • The opportunity to influence Break's strategy and direction through our Staff Consultation Forum
  • Cycle to Work and Tech scheme

We are committed to providing a supportive and inclusive work environment, and we welcome applications from all backgrounds. If you are passionate about working with young people and making a positive difference in their lives, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity.

Please note that you must have a full, valid, manual driving licence and be able to successfully complete an NVQ Level 3 in Residential Childcare before you complete 24 months of Support Work. This will be fully funded by Break and you will be supported by our training team.
