Children's Residential Worker - Kippen, United Kingdom - CrossReach
Description
Playing a game, eating lunch together, visiting a beach. They're everyday things.But in this job, they're powerful tools:
for building trust, creating memories and improving young lives.
Because the children in our care have faced more challenges than most, and it's our job to help them realise their potential and integrate back into their communities.
In our residential services, children live in small community houses and learn at our purpose-built school, all supported by caring professionals like you.
It's a place made with positive experiences and a clear structure somewhere to heal in time, grow as individuals and succeed in the future.
As a Children's Support Worker, you will work with Children who have a wide range of support needs, providing them with practical and emotional support and encouraging them to achieve their own personal outcomes in all aspects of their daily lives e.g.
Which makes this a job with incredible impact.
You'll play a vital role in assessing children's needs and supporting the Lead Practitioners in implementing positive and robust care plans.
As part of a close-knit team, you'll take a 'whole-child' approach.
Whilst a qualification in social care and previous experience in a care or education role would be an advantage, what is just as important is that you have an emphatic approach with the ability to see beyond behaviour to the reasons why.
We can provide the rest of the training that you need and because we need to get our children out and about you'll also need a driving licence.
Even though CrossReach is one of Scotland's largest social care organisations with services across the country, we genuinely value the individual.
For professionals like you, it means being part of an environment where you can contribute ideas, have your needs recognised and achieve your ambitions.
Because as you support the children's future, we'll look after yours, with ongoing training and support for achieving additional qualifications.
You'll also receive a competitive salary, together with generous pension, health cash plan, contribution to your SSSC membership and access to a range of leisure and retail discounts.
