This role offers a great work- life balance with our condensed working rota and sleep-ins, shifts start between 8am and 9am. Above all, we really want like-minded, passionate people who truly want to make a difference.

We are an equal opportunities employer and have a commitment to safeguarding children; we follow safer recruitment processes. All roles will be subject to a successful disclosure at an appropriate level from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS), Access NI or Disclosure Scotland.
