✔ Experience working with children or young people preferred (residential, education, or care setting preferred)
✔ Resilience and patience - able to stay calm in difficult situations
✔ Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare (or willingness to work towards this)

✔ Full training and support to gain recognised qualifications
✔ Opportunities for progression to Senior Support Worker and beyond
✔ Supportive team culture in a small, child-focused setting
✔ Company pension
