Are you passionate about making a difference in the lives of young people?

Do you have a genuine interest in helping children and teens, even if you have no prior experience? If you're caring, compassionate, and ready to embark on a meaningful career, we want to hear from you!

We're looking for individuals with a passion for working with young people to join our team as Secure Care Workers in our Secure Children's Home. No formal experience is required, just a drive to support and inspire young people who may be facing difficult challenges. We'll provide all the training and support you need to succeed.

As a Secure Care Worker, you will be a vital part of a dedicated team, helping young people aged 10 to 17 find stability and hope during difficult times. You'll be providing hands-on care and support, engaging with them in day-to-day activities, education, and health-related matters. You'll also have the chance to focus on either 'intervention work' or 'activity work', depending on your interests and strengths.

  • Offering care and emotional support to young people in a secure environment
  • Helping them build self-confidence and develop life skills
  • Supporting their education, health, and independence
  • Being a positive role model, making a lasting impact on their lives

No two days are the same in this role, and you'll need to be ready for a challenge. Our young people are unique individuals, and we're looking for someone who will treat them as such.

  • A genuine passion for working with young people
  • An optimistic, caring, and compassionate attitude
  • A commitment to making a positive impact, no matter how small

If you're enthusiastic about working with children and teens and ready to take on a rewarding role, this could be the perfect opportunity for you - experience isn't necessary, just the right mindset!

  • Comprehensive training and a supportive induction programme to help you thrive
  • Group Personal Pension Scheme
  • 30 days paid annual leave (including bank holidays)
  • Career progression opportunities
  • Access to discounts and benefits through the Blue Light Card scheme
  • Life Assurance Scheme
  • Enhanced parental leave (maternity, paternity, adoption, and shared parental leave)
  • Occupational Sickness Scheme
  • Regular supervisions and annual appraisals

Join our team and start a meaningful career where every day brings new challenges and the chance to make a real difference in a young person's life. Apply today and become a Secure Care Worker!
