Job description

Are you keen on making a difference in the lives of Young people?

Who We Are

Our vision is simple but powerful: “Excellence Through Understanding.”

We provide 24/7 wraparound support for children and young people in local authority care, particularly during times of uncertainty and transition. Our focus is on creating safe, nurturing, and stableenvironments while helping young people prepare for their next chapter.

We believe that every child deserves to feel safe, valued, and hopeful, and you can be the person who makes that happen.

In this rewarding role, you will:

  • Provide trauma-informed, compassionate care
  • Build trusting relationships and create positive daily routines

  • Prepare meals and promote healthy lifestyles
  • Advocate for young people and ensure their voices are heard
  • Support medical appointments and community activities
  • Transport young people using your own vehicle when required
  • Encourage confidence, resilience, and belief in their future

Every action you take helps shape brighter futures.
