Wellington, New Zealand Caretech Group Full time

Senior Support Worker – Supportive Accommodation
We are the Cambian Group, the largest independent provider of care and education for children and young people.
Cambian employees are friendly, supportive and all focused on achieving the best outcomes for everyone involved with our brand.
The world can be a difficult place for young people leaving the care system or their family home, they've had wraparound love, care and resources and often suddenly find themselves without company and having to maintain their own home. Our Supported Accommodation provides a stepping stone towards independence, rather than a cliff-edge of care. Each young person will lead their journey, creating care plans in conjunction with our support which focus on independent living skills, both practical and emotional, and giving them every opportunity to thrive as young adults.
As a Senior Support Worker, you will be involved in all aspects of their everyday lives and the positive impact you will have is immeasurable.
In addition to a £1000 Refer a Friend Scheme - we offer:

Rate of Pay: up to £13.40 - £14.22 per hour dependent on experience/qualifications
Completely free on-shift meals and parking
Training and Development Plans to meet your individual needs including NVQs and Career progression opportunities
28 Days Holiday inclusive of Bank Holidays and rising with service
Paid Sickness Leave
Casual Dress Code
Company Pension
Simply Health (Linked to Service)
Days out and Activity days off site
We have our very own Management Development Programme to take those interested from Support Worker to Registered Manager and beyond

Hours: 2 on 4 off with sleep-ins included.
Of course - no day is the same here at the Cambian Group, however here is what a day in the life of one of our Senior Support Workers could look like:

Leading shifts and deputising for the Service Manager where required
Ensuring that you are up to date with all mandatory learning and development
Communicating with the on-site team and raising awareness with regards to individual care plans and their implementation
Maintaining accurate written records in logs, continuation sheets and files both to record information and enable regular monitoring and evaluation to take place
Contributing to team and staff meetings to facilitate good communication and staff development
Providing support and care to the young people within our services
Encouraging our young people in their preparation to re-enter education or to engage in their current schooling/college
Traveling with our young people to and from School or College
Supporting our young people to build independence skills including budgeting, preparing food at meal times and maintaining the home (cleaning, laundry etc.) throughout the day

This is not an exhaustive list and of course a full job specification is available.
Within this service, we support young people of mixed age and gender and continually have incredible successes. The young people we support are achieving great marks and participating in a number of activities.
You will join a strong, supportive team in helping young people with complex needs. It's challenging yet highly rewarding work where the little things you do every day will have life-changing results. Whether helping someone to achieve their personal potential or growing our reputation as a provider of the best quality behavioural health services in the UK.
We already have 27 Ofsted 'Outstanding Provider' Awards – Join us as a Senior Support Worker and together we can achieve many, many more.
Requirements:

Must hold a full UK driving licence
Must have the desire to earn a Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare or equivalent Children & Younger Peoples workforce
12 months senior experience working in a Residential setting is highly desirable but we do also encourage applications from those at the start of their journey
Requirements for DBS and reference checking will be undertaken in line with government regulations and safer recruitment best practice.
Whilst we endeavour to keep the recruitment process as short as possible due to the nature of these important checks it may extend the processing time.

Equal Opportunities:
All young people are equally entitled to have their needs met in a fair and balanced way. All staff are responsible for promoting equal opportunities for all and for challenging any behaviour or practice which discriminates against any young person or colleague on the grounds of race, religion, disability, age, gender, sexual orientation or any other perceived difference.
