We are the Cambian group, one of the largest independent providers of care and education for children and young people. We believe that everybody has a personal best and we strive to show our young people their potential.
As we celebrate our successful opening of our 2nd home at Merida, we are now looking at the 3rd home. An exciting opportunity has arisen in our Newmarket-based children’s homes for Residential Support Workers! We are looking for a caring and compassionate person with the desire to help children and young people, by making a positive difference in their lives.
We offer full-time and bank contracts.
We offer an hourly rate of £11.92 for days (8am-8:30pm) or £14.17 for nights (8pm-8:30am). We provide hours of paid annual leave per year.
Higher rates of pay are available for Team Leader and Deputy Manager positions. You will receive a monthly rota. This is a day-a-year job, including Christmas, New Year, and all the holidays, but it is even more fun when you celebrate with the children! The shifts consist of long hours and sleep-ins (which are essential), and the hours differ depending on which home you are based in.
You MUST be 21 due to Ofsted regulations. Driving is essential due to the locations of the homes. No experience is needed.
Additional benefits include a refer-a-friend payment scheme, enrollment in a workplace pension scheme after three months, progression opportunities within the company (Support Worker – Team Leader – Deputy Manager), overtime paid at x1.25, a fully paid 10-day induction course, an enhanced DBS check paid for by Cambian Group, and enrollment in NVQ Level 3 Children and Young People’s Workforce after successful completion of a six-month probationary period.
Although we value experience, we are looking for genuine, caring individuals to create a family environment for our children. Are you great at staying calm in challenging situations? Offering advice? A good listener? Able to show unconditional positive regard? Then we want to hear from you!
