The Role

We are looking for someone to be part of our team delivering the Therapeutically Led Care Service (TLC).

As an Individual Worker, you will be there to provide one to one support to young people on the programme. You will be expected to build positive relationships with the child and help them to trust and feel safe with adults. You will also be expected to model acceptable behaviour, promote pro-social behaviour and practice problem solving skills. The Individual Worker will be responsible for undertaking observations and providing information to the clinical team about the social functioning and skill development of the young people in community settings.

The successful candidate will work closely with members of the clinical team to offer support and provide vital assistance for a variety of tasks that contribute to ensuring children’s care and development needs are met. As directed, you will be responsible for planning, facilitating and delivering a range of support services. This includes implementing group activities for carers, children and young people, undertaking visits to foster homes and supervising children at Blue Sky social events.

  • Have a good understanding and awareness of child safeguarding issues
  • Able to communicate clearly and effectively, verbally and in writing with a wide audience
  • Are willing to travel as and when required to a range of appointments
  • Are willing to work flexible hours, including non-office hours, in order to meet the needs of supporting young people socially outside of school hours
  • Share a commitment to Equal Opportunities in all work practices and to improving the lives of children who are looked after

Why work for us?

  • Generous Annual Leave – 28 days PLUS your Bank Holiday Entitlement
  • Birthday Leave – a paid day off for your birthday
  • Good Health Days – no sickness in a 6 month period and get an additional day off!
  • Refer A Friend Scheme with a monetary incentive
  • Comprehensive Employee Assistance Platform that provides access to advice and support 24/7
  • Auto Enrolment Pension
  • Learning & Development Opportunities
  • Optional Private Healthcare Scheme
