EBD Children and Young People Support Worker
Contract: Agency
Pay rate: £13 - £16 an hour (plus additional holiday pay)
Location: Swansea and surrounding areas
This is a great opportunity for anyone wanting flexibility, extra income and wanting to make a real difference in the lives of children and young people!
What will you be doing?
Your role will aid in delivering support to children and young people through meeting their emotional, social, physical, and intellectual needs within their residential homes and out in the community. These individuals will be provided with a personal plan that will enable you to support the young people to have positive experiences while still integrating their boundaries and routine. You will need to be prepared to work 1:1 with those you're supporting; however, often you will be supported on a 2:1 basis with other staff members.
You will be required to take part in daily activities with the young people, so a driver with access to their own vehicle is preferred; however, this is not essential. To aid with this, it is essential that you have attention to detail, great communication skills, and are resilient. Ideally, due to challenging behaviours, you will already have PBM training or equivalent; however, we offer FREE training with FREE certificates provided to best support you within your role! We're passionate about investing in you!
For this role, it is essential you have a minimum of 6 months experience working with children and young people.
Requirements:
* 6 months UK-based care experience in the last year OR a year in the last 5 years
* Right to work in the UK (we do not offer sponsorship)
* Willing to undergo DBS and reference checks
* Willing to undertake personal care
* To be approachable, friendly, proactive, and engage with the service users
* Great communication, organisational, and interpersonal skills
* Registered with Social Care Wales
Benefits of joining us:
* Weekly pay and paid PAYE (We do not use umbrella companies - meaning you accrue holiday pay and no hidden fees)
* Offer shifts via your availability
* 24/7 contact with Brook Street Social Care
* Pension scheme entitlement
* Double pay on Bank Holidays
* Access to specialist support through our Mental Health First Aiders
* Online timesheets and payslips
* Free training and refreshers provided including Manual handling, Medication, PBM and more! No fee for certificates!
