As a Lead Children's Worker, you will play an important role in providing a safe, supportive and nurturing overnight environment for children and young people with disabilities. Working as part of our Children with Disabilities service, you will help ensure each young person feels secure, valued and cared for throughout the night while supporting their individual needs and wellbeing. This is a hands-on leadership role where you will lead shifts, support colleagues and help deliver high-quality, person-centred care. What you will do Lead and coordinate walking night shifts within the service. Provide personal care and support tailored to each child's individual needs.

About you You will have experience working with children, ideally those with disabilities or additional support needs, and be confident providing person-centred care in a residential setting. You will be organised, reliable and able to remain calm under pressure while supporting both children and colleagues. You will hold an SVQ Level 3 in Social Care (Children), HNC Social Care or an equivalent SCQF Level 7 qualification. Experience supporting individuals who may display behaviours of concern and the ability to build positive relationships with families and professionals will be important. This role requires membership of the Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme and registration with the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC). As we carry out our work in Christ's name, you must be respectful of our Christian ethos and able to work within it. Why work with us? Every night, you'll help create a safe and welcoming environment where children and young people can rest, feel secure and receive the support they need. You'll join a dedicated team committed to helping young people build confidence, develop independence and achieve positive outcomes while receiving the highest standard of care.
