Job description

Do you want to make a real difference? Become a Support Worker with Paragon Social Care!

Ready to change a young person’s life for the better? At Paragon Social Care, we’re looking for passionate, caring, and resilient Children’s Support Workers to join our team.

Whether you have care experience or are looking for a rewarding new challenge, this is your opportunity to make a lasting impact on the lives of vulnerable children.

Who Are We?

At Paragon Social Care, our vision is "Excellence Through Understanding." We provide 24/7 wraparound support for children and young people in local authority care during times of uncertainty and transition, creating safe, nurturing environments while helping them build brighter futures.

Your Role

Every day is different, but you will:

  • Provide compassionate, trauma-informed care
  • Build positive relationships and encourage healthy routines
  • Prepare meals, support education, and develop life skills
  • 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
  • Help them move confidently towards independence

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience working with children or young people (paid or voluntary)
  • Full UK driving licence and own vehicle
  • Patience, empathy, and resilience
  • Flexibility to work waking nights, weekends, and sleep-ins when required
  • Enhanced DBS (or willingness to obtain one)

An NVQ Level 3 in Children’s Residential Care (or equivalent) is desirable but not essential.

What You’ll Receive

Competitive Pay

  • £17.50–£24.00 per hour PAYE (including holiday pay)
  • £20.00–£28.00 per hour Umbrella

Free Training & Development

  • Online and face-to-face training in safeguarding, trauma-informed practice, positive behaviour support, and more
  • Clear career progression opportunities, including Senior Support Worker roles

Additional Benefits

  • Flexible agency shifts
  • Casual dress
  • Company pension
  • Referral bonuses

Why Join Us?

This is more than a job—it's an opportunity to make a genuine difference in a child's life. If you have the passion, we'll provide the training, support, and opportunities to help you succeed.

Apply today and start making the impact you were meant for!
