Full job description

Senior Residential Support Worker
Children’s Residential Home (EBD)
Melton Mowbray LE14
Full-time, permanent | £33,164.80 to £36,160.00 per year
Rota: 1 on / 2 off

This is a small, therapeutic two-bed home for young people with emotional and behavioural needs. The focus is simple and consistent: safe relationships, clear routines and staff who know their young people well.

As Senior Residential Support Worker, you’ll be part of a tight, experienced team and take a lead role on shift. You’ll guide practice, support newer staff and help keep the home running in a way that feels predictable and safe for the children living there.

The provider has built its services around relationship-based care, clear boundaries and reflective team culture, with proper training and clinical input to back that up.

What you’ll be doing

  • Leading shifts and handovers with clear plans and expectations
  • Keeping routines consistent so young people know what to expect
  • Mentoring and supporting newer team members in day-to-day work
  • Contributing to care plans, risk assessments and key decisions
  • Supporting education, appointments, family time and activities
  • Using therapeutic, relationship-led approaches in daily interactions
  • Maintaining good quality records and helping keep the home well presented

What you’ll bring

  • Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare (or equivalent)
  • Around 12 months’ experience in children’s residential care
  • Experience leading shifts within a small team
  • Confident communication and strong written recording
  • A balanced approach to boundaries, consistency and care
  • Full UK manual driving licence

Pay, perks and progression

  • £33,164.80 to £36,160.00 per year (inclusive of sleeps)
  • Sleep-ins paid at £50
  • £2.50 overtime uplift after 160 hours per month
  • Twice-yearly pay reviews (March and October)
  • Bonuses linked to probation, appraisal and Ofsted outcomes
  • Funded qualifications and protected CPD time
  • Face-to-face training with clinical input
  • Regular reflective supervision
  • 8 hours’ paid birthday leave
  • Pension, Employee Assistance Programme and wellbeing support
  • Refer-a-friend scheme and staff appreciation events
  • Clear pathway into Deputy Manager and, in time, Registered Manager roles

Why this role stands out

You’ll be joining a stable, values-led home where practice is taken seriously and senior leaders stay involved in a constructive way. The team are experienced, expectations are clear, and there is real scope to grow your leadership skills while still being close to direct work with young people.
