Job Description:
Cambian employees are friendly, supportive and all focused on achieving the best outcomes for everyone involved with our service. We are looking for Senior Team Leaders to be a part of our *New Opening* to build a stable and welcoming environment where our young people are central to everything we do.
As the new Senior Team Leader, you will be emotionally strong and driven to make a difference day to day. Most importantly, you will get to really understand our children and their backgrounds, making sure that their needs are at the centre of everything we do. You will be approachable and detail-focused, ensuring that our children’s safety is assured at all times, and that all protocols and regulations are fully adhered to.
Do you have what it takes to encourage and help our children to live independently and guide and teach them with your own life experiences? To do this we believe you will need empathy, compassion, resilience, and positive parenting skills.
The working day can be very unpredictable, and you could find yourself spending the entire morning organizing activities and the afternoon providing 1:1 support.
We are looking for enthusiastic, energetic, flexible, and caring people to join our team across the Warrington, Runcorn region to continue improving the lives of the young people within our care.
As a Senior Team Leader, you will be involved in all aspects of their everyday lives, and the positive impact you will have is immeasurable.
In addition to a £ Refer a Friend Scheme, we offer:
1. Rate of Pay: up to £14.50 per hour dependent on experience/qualifications
2. Training and Development Plans to meet your individual needs including NVQs and Career progression opportunities
3. 28 Days Holiday inclusive of Bank Holidays and rising with service
4. Paid Sickness Leave
5. Additional Overtime/On-Call/Sleep-in/Disturbance Rates
6. Casual Dress Code
7. Company Pension
8. Simply Health (Linked to Service)
9. Days out and Activity days off site
10. Management Development Programme to take those interested from Support Worker to Registered Manager and beyond
Shift Pattern: 16 to 24 Hour (including Sleep-in) on a one on two off or two on four off basis.
The young people in our care range between the ages of 8-18 years and have a range of behavioural and emotional needs.
Of course, no day is the same here at the Cambian Group; however, here is what a day in the life of one of our Senior Team Leaders could look like:
1. Leading shifts and deputising for the Registered Manager where required
2. Ensuring that our incredible team of Residential Care Workers are up to date with all mandatory learning and assisting with their individual development
3. Communicating with the on-site team and raising awareness regarding individual care plans and their implementation
4. Maintaining accurate written records in logs, continuation sheets, and files to record information and enable regular monitoring and evaluation
5. Contributing to team and staff meetings to facilitate good communication and staff development
6. Providing support and care to the young people within our services
7. Encouraging our young people in their preparation to re-enter education or to engage in their current schooling
8. Traveling with our young people to and from School or College
9. Preparing food at meal times and maintaining the home (cleaning, laundry, etc.) throughout the day to ensure a wonderful environment for the young people in our care
10. Organizing and facilitating social activities
Within this service, we support young people of mixed age and gender and continually have incredible successes. The young people we support are very well adjusted to school and are achieving great marks and participating in a number of activities.
You will join a strong, supportive team in helping young people with complex needs. It’s challenging yet highly rewarding work where the little things you do every day will have life-changing results. Whether helping someone to achieve their personal potential or growing our reputation as a provider of the best quality behavioural health services in the UK.
We already have 27 Ofsted ‘Outstanding Provider’ Awards – Join us as a Senior Support Worker and together we can achieve many, many more.
Requirements:
1. Must hold a full UK driving licence
2. Must have the desire to earn a Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare or equivalent Children & Younger Peoples workforce
3. 12 months experience working in a Residential setting is highly desirable but we do also encourage applications from those at the start of their journey
Requirements for DBS and reference checking will be undertaken in line with government regulations and safer recruitment best practice. Whilst we endeavour to keep the recruitment process as short as possible due to the nature of these important checks, it may extend the processing time.
