Talent Acquisition Partner

The Protective Care Group offers bespoke, tailor-made support services to the families of children or young adults with severe and complex needs. We specialise in providing a level of support that local authorities are often unable to; support that makes a real difference to somebody's quality of life and future prospects.

So much so that we've doubled in size this year and will have doubled again by the end of 2024. We're investing in new properties and locations but crucially in our people. As there's such strong demand for our services, the team will continue to build which means we can offer you a genuine chance to grow with us.
