Are you looking for a career change that offers you fulfilling and rewarding work?
Have you always wondered what a career in care could look like but didn’t know where to start?
Protective Care Group may have the role for you!
PCG are looking for passionate and caring individuals to join us as Support Workers to help create a safe, loving environment for children that exhibit extremely challenging behaviour as a result of trauma.
Why You’ll Love This Role:
* A chance to be a child again: Hiking, mini golf, football, baking, pamper nights—whatever our children want to do you’ll make it happen!
* No two days are the same: Yes, it’s a challenging role but worthwhile. Take a look at some of our case studies to find out more
* Incredibly rewarding: give a child the opportunity to create a stable, nurturing home that they deserve but never had.
* Challenge yourself: This isn’t your standard care role—expect variety, unpredictability, and the chance to make every day count.
Requirements
What we’re looking for:
* A full UK manual driving license and Right to Work in the UK.
* Flexibility to work across the North East, we have a lot of young people so you could be asked to work in any of our teams.
* Able to commit to a varied shift pattern including rolling 4 on 4 off that covers days, waking nights and sleep-ins. This means you need to be comfortable staying away from home if your rotation requires you to.
* People who are open minded, willing to learn and able to adapt to anything which may be thrown your way, like we said, this isn’t your standard care role.
What our Young People are looking for:
* Someone who is nice, enjoys activities and will help with things.
* Someone who will take things slowly and enjoy life.
* Someone who will take time to listen and understand.
Benefits
What You’ll Get:
