Everything you do matters. From the moment you open the door and enter one of our services, you become something more than you once were.
You enter the place our young people call home, where a grin can make a young person’s day, where listening can shape a life, and where simply turning up on time has a bigger impact than it does anywhere else.
Walking through the door at Cambian means having a direct impact on the futures of the young people in our care. Asking “how school was” is so much more than a throwaway question; it’s stability, it’s genuine interest, and it demonstrates that you are here and here is safe.
Our Residential Care Workers / Team Leaders are fundamental to the development of the young people in our homes. Yes, there will be challenges along the way, but every forward step is a cause for celebration, and a simple “well done” goes a long way!
Our homes accommodate young people aged 8 to 18 from various backgrounds and with varying levels of social, emotional, and mental health needs. Our aim is to create the best possible outcomes for them to allow every single one of them to reach their full potential.
Your Responsibilities:
1. Ensure young people are up and ready for their day, whether for school or a morning at the park.
2. Maintain a homely environment by running the hoover, helping with homework, or preparing dinner.
3. Engage in fun activities during evenings and weekends, such as playing video games, board games, or outings.
4. Complete necessary paperwork and planning while supporting young people.
How We Appreciate You:
We offer the best induction in the sector with two weeks of content delivered by experts face-to-face. We will also fund NVQ 3-4-5 if you show the capability and desire.
Pay: £28,000 - £33,760 (Plus sleep-ins and depending on qualification and experience). We also offer an annual performance-based bonus.
Career Development: The first place we look for senior staff is within our ranks, with the vast majority of our Senior Support Workers, Deputy, Home, and Regional Managers promoted from within.
Flexible benefits package: From day one, you will receive a membership to Pluxxee UK, offering a range of discounts from various brands. You will also have access to a 24-hour helpline for assistance and support for yourself and next of kin through any of life’s problems.
After two years of service, we offer Simply Health benefits with cashback for your dental and optical appointments.
We also offer up to £1000 - £2000 for every staff member you refer to the company through our employee referral program.
Our Values:
We require you to demonstrate our common values: Friendly, Positive, Innovative, Empowering, and Person-Centred. These values are more important than where we have worked or the positions we have held.
Cambian is committed to promoting the safeguarding and welfare of all children within our care. All applicants must be willing to undergo an enhanced DBS check and provide at least two references covering the past two years.
