Sanctuary Supported Living are delighted to be recruiting for a Night Project Worker at Prices Court, Sittingbourne to provide support to children and young adults.

 

At Sanctuary Supported Living, we specialise in delivering a wide range of personalised housing, care and support services to people across England. We help people to live as independently as possible through supported housing, Care Quality Commission (CQC) registered services, retirement communities, move-on accommodation, floating support, and technology in the home.

 

We’re a not-for-profit national organisation, but we think locally. We’re committed to being our best and helping customers to be their best, as we support them on their pathways for independence.

 

No matter your job – delivering support directly or working in our offices to support our frontline teams – your work makes a difference every day.

 

And working with us isn’t just another job. It’s rewarding, inspiring, exciting and it provides an opportunity to make a real, positive impact in people’s lives. Plus, we’ll support you in reaching your aspirations and career goals, through comprehensive training and benefits.

  • Provide high quality person centred support to enable and empower our young people to develop the skills necessary for independent living within legislative, regulatory requirements and best practice
  • Establish professional relationships with all clients, using appropriate and clear communication to promote independence through developing daily living skills and social engagement, ensuring that clients maintain personal choice, privacy and dignity
  • Assist clients in understanding and planning their support package, focussing on positive outcomes to maximise clients' potential and enable them to exercise choice and control
  • Provide advocacy to support clients and their families when required, to maximise clients independence and personal potential
  • Liaise with relevant external agencies to ensure the maximum support is delivered to enable clients to access and maintain a level of integration within the wider community
  • Manage the implementation of safeguarding principles and responsibilities to ensure the safety of clients and to avoid potential risk to stakeholders and the business
  • Promote safe practices and undertake risk assessments within legislative frameworks and business protocols, escalating issues as appropriate
  • Contribute, as appropriate, to special programmes and projects in support of the Group's values and objectives

Skills and experiences:

  • Experience of working with vulnerable children and young adults
  • Proven experience of working with relevant client group
  • Proven knowledge of key needs and services for relevant client group
  • Some knowledge of relevant legislative and regulatory requirements
  • Good understanding of written and spoken English
  • Good communication skills
  • Good interpersonal and customer care skills
  • Ability to demonstrate a positive and accepting approach to clients whatever their needs
  • Ability to keep accurate records and clearly communicate relevant information
  • Ability to make accurate simple calculations
  • Email and internet communications

Are you ready to be your best?

Brilliant work deserves brilliant benefits As part of our commitment to making Sanctuary Supported Living a great place to work, here are just some of the ways we’ll reward you:

  • At least 25 days paid holiday, rising to 30 days after 5 years’ service (plus public holidays).
