* Assisting with routines, education, appointments, and activities
* Promoting independence and life skills development
* Completing daily records, reports, and safeguarding documentation
* Working closely with families, social workers, and external professionals
* Supporting children through challenging behaviours positively and consistently
* Contributing to a safe, homely, and nurturing environment
About You
* Experience working with children or vulnerable young people
* Passionate, resilient, and emotionally intelligent
* Understanding of safeguarding and child-centred practice
* Strong communication and teamwork skills
* Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare (or willingness to work towards)
* Full UK Driving Licence preferred
What’s on Offer
* £26,000 – £28,250 salary
* £55 per sleep-in payment
* Structured 3-week rolling rota for improved work-life balance
* Ongoing training and professional development
* Supportive leadership team focused on outcomes over profit
* Opportunity to progress within a growing organisation
* Therapeutic and relationship-led care environment
If you’re looking to join a provider where children genuinely come first and where you can build a rewarding long-term career in residential childcare, we’d love to hear from you.
At RJS, we partner with values-driven children’s care providers across the UK and work on a continuous stream of exciting opportunities within the sector.
