Job Description:
Cambian employees are friendly, supportive, and focused on achieving the best outcomes for everyone involved with our service. We are looking for Children’s Residential Care Workers 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 Residential Care Worker, 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, ensuring 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? We believe you will need empathy, compassion, resilience, and positive parenting skills.
The working day can be unpredictable; you could spend 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.
