Children's Nights Mobile Support Worker

As a Waking Nights Support Worker in Break's mobile team, you'll have the opportunity to work across the range of Break's services based in and around King's Lynn. If you're looking for a varied role which incorporates community and residential services then this is the role for you. Two nights are never the same in this role as you work across 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 bring a positive and can-do attitude to the role, have the ability to adapt to a varied workload and be able to build up strong relationships with a range of professionals and children across Break's services. 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 a Diploma Level 3 in Residential Childcare within 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.

At Break we invest in the future of our staff just as we do for the young people in our services. We strive to provide the highest quality of care, so whether you're just starting your career in children's social care or are already qualified, you'll be supported, recognised and rewarded for your essential part in our vital work.
