A good understanding of safeguarding, professional boundaries, recording, care planning and the importance of working to high standards

A Level 3 Diploma in Working with Children and Young People, or an equivalent relevant qualification

A full UK driving licence and the flexibility to work as part of a residential rota, including sleep-in shifts when required

Why Join Bay View?

A competitive salary, up to £35,635.33 per year including sleep-in shifts payments (6-8 per month at £70 each)

Regular supervision, guidance and hands-on support from experienced managers

Company pension scheme

Access to the Exchange Employee Discount Scheme

What You'll Be Doing

Creating, reviewing and maintaining high-quality care plans that meet legislation, Ofsted standards and Bay View policies

Building trusting, positive relationships with children and helping them take part in activities that support their development and wellbeing

Leading by example to create a safe, inclusive home where positive behaviour, clear boundaries and high standards are consistently promoted

Recording and sharing key information clearly with children, families, professionals and the Registered Manager

Supporting the smooth day-to-day running of the home and deputising for the Registered Manager when required

Helping manage rotas, budgets, sleep-ins, on-call arrangements and household planning

Contributing to team meetings, encouraging open communication and supporting a culture of continuous improvement

Supporting safe staffing levels, managing absences and carrying out staff supervisions

Keeping your knowledge and practice up to date through training, reflection and professional development

Acting quickly and appropriately if concerns arise, escalating matters when needed to safeguard children and maintain high standards
