About The Role
Calling all residential children's care workers. Do you share our passion for improving the lives of young people; providing them with the best possible experiences while with us; and giving them the greatest opportunities to thrive when they leave the safety of our care? Do you want to learn, grow, and progress with a company that is committed to doing its best for its young people and its staff? Then read on.
Job Opportunity
Here at Arnfield Care, we’re interested in talking to individuals looking for a move within the children’s residential care sector, as well as people with relevant transferrable skills and experience. We have full-time roles available for Support Workers and Senior Support Workers to join our teams in three beautiful Good and Outstanding homes in an idyllic Peak District setting.
We Offer
Our long-standing, respected and high-quality residential care and on-site education enables us to nurture, support and engage young people to help them to overcome disadvantage. Whether they’re with us for short-term, intensive crisis intervention work, or longer-term placements as they transition towards semi-independence, we help change lives. We transform the lives of staff too. You bring the right attitudes and instincts, show ambition, enthusiasm, resilience, and empathy, and we’ll train and mentor you, as you mentor the young people in your care, developing your technical skills and confidence, and helping you to build a genuinely rewarding career; the likes of which other employers can’t match.
Some of our best candidates bring a variety of transferable skills and valuable life experiences to their roles, making them excellent recruits for our team. Their knowledge of appropriate boundaries and innate ability to make connections with young people are the ideal foundation for our thorough training on the more technical aspects of our work. We achieve consistently successful outcomes with young people because we employ a diverse workforce that can empathise with the cultures they come from and the issues they face. People who have learned important lessons from the school of life often have the greatest impact on vulnerable children and young people who have already experienced significant challenges and trauma.
Key Aspects Of Children's Residential Care Work
Established in 1997 and based in the High Peak, Arnfield Care provides high-quality residential care and on-site education for children and young people from throughout the United Kingdom and, occasionally, abroad. Residents, aged 11 - 17 years, are dealing with a wide range of complex and challenging needs resulting from social, emotional, and behavioural difficulties in their formative years. We pride ourselves on being nurturing and supportive, and on using innovative strategies to engage young people so that they can overcome early disadvantages and achieve genuine equality of opportunity in later life. We are a disability-confident, age-friendly employer and we welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds.
