Job Description:

Join Our Mission – Youth Support Worker (Supported Accommodation Full time)

Make a Real Difference – Equipped with Tools That Work

We believe that care-experienced young people deserve not just a place to live, but the opportunity to thrive. We’re recruiting passionate Youth Workers to work across three key areas aligned with a care-experienced version of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs.

You will play a vital role in helping young people feel secure and valued from the moment they move in.

• Our accommodation offers more than just shelter – it is a place of safety, rest, and dignity.
• You will ensure basic needs like warmth, food, rest, and physical safety are consistently met, in line with the foundational level of the Children’s Commissioner’s Hierarchy of Needs for Care Experienced Young People.
• Every member of our team – from senior staff to support workers – shares responsibility for creating a space where young people feel a deep sense of belonging, supported by trusted relationships and a trauma-informed approach.

Once safety is secured, your focus will shift to nurturing self-esteem, independence, and autonomy.

We have launched a brand-new Life Skills Training Space, replicating a real home environment.

You'll deliver these sessions in a practical, hands-on way using workbooks, self-assessment tools, and photo evidence to celebrate progress.

Young people will learn over 150 essential skills, including:

• Administration, bulk waste collection budgeting, energy
• Decorating, painting, and DIY
• Changing locks and putting up shelves
• Bleeding radiators and installing appliances

You'll have access to a purpose-built, fully equipped simulated flat and practical skills training environment, a structured Life Skills Workbook, and digital support tools to track development and build confidence.

As part of our Jobs Programme, you'll guide young people towards real, paid work with trusted employers.

Our programme goes beyond employability workshops – we offer actual subsidised roles (up to 22.5 hours/week) for young people.

You will:

• Match young people with employers based on their strengths and aspirations
• Provide in-work coaching and soft-skills development
• Offer regular feedback and troubleshooting support to both employer and employee
• Help young people build workplace confidence and long-term independence

What We Offer Employees

We invest in the people who make our mission possible. Join us and you’ll benefit from a package that goes far beyond a pay cheque:

• A structured 6-month onboarding programme followed by personalised ongoing development.
• A therapist comes to our offices 1 day per month and staff can enjoy a half hour treatment to relax and rejuvenate, with complimentary treatments such as reflexology, aromatherapy, Swedish massage, facials and nail treatments.
• Making travel between properties, employers and appointments easier and more accessible.
• Confidential helpline offering counselling plus advice on stress, finances, housing, relationships, medical queries and more – whenever you need it.
• Take an additional day off every month (unpaid) to focus on family, hobbies or simply re-charging, giving genuine work life balance.
• Enjoy hundreds of discounts on high-street shopping, food, tech and travel as a thank-you for the work you do.
• Funded training from entry-level to Level 6 leadership; continuous CPD in trauma-informed practice, safeguarding, life-skills delivery and employability coaching. And apprenticeships and career progression in Youth Work.
• A fair, transparent environment where every voice matters, lived experience is valued and collaboration is the norm.
• Employee of the Month: Recognition with a certificate and a £50 reward.
• Long Service Awards

Daily impact helping care-experienced young people build safety, independence and employment – purpose you can feel.
