Support Worker

Protective Care Group was established to provide bespoke and tailor-made support for young people with severe, complex needs, particularly those exhibiting challenging behaviour. 
We specialise in providing a level of support that local authorities are often unable to and are looking for kind, caring and experienced Support Workers to play an integral part in the delivery of this.  
You’ll have professional experience working with children or young adults within the sector, particularly those who exhibit challenging behaviours. You may already be working as a Support Worker to young people but be looking for a new role which will challenge you and give you opportunities to grow your career.
Our Complex Needs Support Workers have:

• A Level 3 qualification in Child and Residential care (or a suitable alternative)
• A minimum of 12 months employed experience working with vulnerable young people.
• Sound knowledge of safeguarding policies.
• Understanding of CQC and OFSTED regulations and their importance.
• A full UK manual driving license and are happy and comfortable travelling for work.
• A genuine passion for delivering the highest standard of care to vulnerable individuals.

What we can offer:

• Genuine career progression into our leadership team.
• Full support to help you achieve Level 5 in Leadership & Management.
• Lots of other training courses and annual refresher training to help you do your role well.
• Group and one to one supervision.
• Regular appraisals.
• Generous salaries.
• Paid holiday.
• Company pension scheme.

Our recruitment process will be supportive, informative, thorough and hopefully enjoyable! If selected, you’ll have a first stage telephone interview, a second stage interview over Microsoft Teams then if successful at that point, we’ll invite you to our activity & assessment day held here at our offices in the Cotswolds. Plus, we’ll cover your costs for an overnight stay.
