Description

Are you looking for a varied, challenging and rewarding position where you can help and mentor young people? Phoenix House is a residential home that accommodates up to 4 young people between the age of 11 and 17 years old, whose emotional and behavioural difficulties are such that they are unable to live within their own or a substitute family setting; and who require an environment in which they can come to terms with their past, in order that they may have a bright future.

We provide a flexible response in addressing the individual needs of young people by providing an environment which effectively meets the physical, social, and emotional needs of each young person.

Whilst there is no substitute for a family, we aim to provide an environment that is stable and supportive to help young people regulate their lives through the experience of good parenting and reach their full potential.

Care for the young people at Phoenix House will focus on helping them achieve their full potential in life; assisting them to gain a clearer understanding about their life experiences; and seeking to improve family relationships and levels of independence.

All members of the team work on a rota basis, which includes evenings and weekends.

Enhancements for evening and weekend work, sleeping-in payments, stand-by payments, and overtime substantially increase the earnings potential for this post, in addition to the basic salary.

These posts are zero hours contracts providing cover/relief for existing staff and is a great first step into a new career.

Shifts include weekend and evening working and successful candidates should be available to work at short notice.
