Job description

Barracare operates within the residential children’s homes sector. The organisation provides vulnerable children care at the highest level and has an ambitious growth strategy to achieve this on a regional scale.

The Home

Our homes are based in Lancashire in the town of Brierfield, and Calderdale in the town of Todmorden; they accomodate up to four children with challenging behaviours and emotional difficulties.

This is an excellent opportunity to advance your career and join a meritocratic organisation keen to reward high performance with professional development and upward progression.

We have roles available at all levels from entry level Care Practitioners to Seniors and Team Leaders, on a full-time and part-time basis.

We’re looking for caring, sociable and energetic individuals. The role is demanding so you’ll need to be resilient and patient. Experience of working with young people in a similar setting is ideal.

We’re particularly interested in male, as well as female candidates, of all ages; providing a diverse range of role models for the children in our care.
