Why Break?

At Break we invest in the future of our staff just as we do for the young people in our services. We strive to provide the highest quality of care, so whether you’re just starting your career in children’s social care or are already qualified, you’ll be supported, recognised and rewarded for your essential part in our vital work.

About the role:

As a Break Team Leader you’ll be playing a vital role in the outcomes for young people in Break’s services. Your energy and passion to see young people thrive will be at the heart of your work to lead, guide and support your colleagues to create fun and inspirational shifts for the team and young people to be part of.

The first twelve months of your time at Break will see you build relationships with the young people we care for and support in our homes. Day to day you may find yourself planning and taking part in trips and activities and learning new skills to help young people overcome communication difficulties.

Every milestone in our disability services is celebrated and treasured. We can’t promise every day will be easy, but we can promise the sense of pride you’ll feel for the young people you support and care for.

You’ll need to be an excellent team player who is warm, caring, calm and resilient enough to cope with the complex emotional and behavioural needs of the young people we support.

You will need 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.

Please note that you must have a full, valid, manual driving licence.

In your role, you’ll have access to the following benefits:

• Free, career-enhancing qualifications

• A “golden hello” scheme welcoming you to our services, with £500 paid to you one month after your start date and a second £500 at the six-month mark.  (Not available to candidates referred by recruitment agencies)

• A referral scheme offering the same two payments as the golden hello if you recommend a contact who goes on to be employed by Break in care services. (subject to conditions)

• 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 (your membership fee will be reimbursed)

• 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

• And more
