About the role
No two days are never the same in this role as you work across King’s Lynn, Norfolk to provide consistent care for service users. You’ll work with young people between the ages of 5 and 25 providing extra support and shift cover in Break’s residential services for young people and those with disabilities, in our Staying Close, Staying Connected service – a pioneering leaving care offer, and at our disability short break centre.

You’ll need to be an excellent team player who is warm, caring, calm and resilient enough to cope with the complex emotional and behavioural needs of the young people we support.
You will need to successfully complete an NVQ Level 3 in Residential Childcare before you complete 24 months of Support Work. This will be fully funded by Break and you will be supported by our training team.
Please note that you must have a full, valid, manual driving licence.
