Make a Real Difference - And Take Your Next Step in Care

Are you ready to step into a senior role where you can lead, support, and truly change young lives?

We’re Edison Young People, and we provide warm, family-style homes for children and young people with emotional and behavioural needs. Right now, we’re looking for a Senior Residential Support Worker to help guide a small, passionate team and create a positive daily routine for the children in our care.

What the Role Involves

No two days are the same, but your focus will always be on creating a safe, supportive, and positive space for the young people in your care — and leading by example.

You’ll:

- Take the lead on shifts and support the care team
- Be a steady, caring presence for the children
- Help with daily routines — meals, school runs, downtime, and activities
- Use trauma-informed care to build trust and connection
- Encourage positive behaviour and emotional wellbeing
- Keep the house running smoothly and safely — including paperwork and compliance
- Work closely with the Deputy/Registered Manager to build leadership skills

What You’ll Get from Us

We value your experience — and we make sure you feel it:

- £14.70 per hour + £47.25 per sleep-in
- Refer-a-friend bonus - earn up to £500
- Blue Light Card - discounts across shops, restaurants & more
- Cashback scheme - dental, optical & physio support
- Free meals on shift - because we eat together, just like a family
- Health Shield - wellbeing, counselling & financial advice
- Excellent training and leadership development from day one
- Full induction & continuous mentoring from experienced leaders

What We’re Looking For

To hit the ground running as a Senior Support Worker, you’ll need:

- Experience working with children or young people in residential care (EBD or similar)
- Calm, confident leadership qualities - you don’t have to be a manager yet, just ready to guide and support others
- A commitment to trauma-informed, child-centred care
- Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare
- Full UK driving licence and age 21+
- Flexibility for rota work including sleep-ins

Why Edison

Because we don’t just talk about making a difference — we live it. You’ll be part of a supportive team where everyone looks out for each other. A place where kids learn to trust again, and where staff grow into leaders. This isn’t just a job. It’s a place to build your future and change someone else’s.
