Job Description:
Are you a positive, caring and compassionate role model looking for an exciting, new career opportunity providing invaluable support to children and young people?
About us:
We are Cambian Group, the largest independent provider of care and education for children and young people. We believe that everyone has a personal best. Those we care for and those who care for them. You will find that you are part of a close, supportive team, all focused on achieving the best outcome for everyone.
About the role:
The working day can be very unpredictable and you could find yourself doing a variation of duties such as organising activities and attending parental appointments. We are looking for people who are flexible, reliable, and adaptable, able to read situations to help our young people make positive choices.

* You’ll participate in team meetings sharing ideas and best practices
* You’ll work closely with our clinical team and local authorities
Qualifications/Experience/Requirements:
We’re seeking individuals with life skills; experience with children or in health and social care is beneficial but not essential, as full training and support are provided.
Ideally, you’ll have a full UK driving licence or be working towards one.

* £30 per sleep-in (2-3 sleep-ins per week)
* Overtime paid at an enhanced rate

Enhanced DBS and reference checks are conducted as per government regulations. We conduct online searches of shortlisted candidates to ensure suitability for working with children, conducted by a panel member not involved in the recruitment decision to avoid bias.
