Hourly £13.50 rate About Central & Southern Locations: Bodmin, Exeter and Credition At Central & Southern, we provide therapeutic residential care for children and young people who have experienced trauma, loss and adversity. Our homes are more than just places to live, they are safe, nurturing environments where children are supported to heal, grow and build brighter futures. We currently operate seven children s homes across Devon and Cornwall , giving our teams the opportunity to develop their careers within a growing organisation. We are passionate about promoting from within, and many of our Team Leaders, Deputy Managers, Registered Managers and senior leaders began their careers as Residential Support Workers. Our approach is therapeutic and relationship-based. We don t believe in simply managing behaviour. Instead, we recognise that behaviour is a form of communication. By building trusting relationships, remaining curious, and responding with empathy, consistency and clear boundaries, we help children feel safe, regulate their emotions and develop the confidence to thrive. Every day is different. One day you might be helping a young person prepare for school, the next you could be teaching them to cook, supporting them through a difficult conversation, celebrating an achievement, or creating lasting memories on a day out. It s these everyday moments, built on trust and consistency, that have the greatest impact. When you join Central & Southern, you re joining more than a team, you re joining a community that values its people just as much as the children we support. We invest heavily in training, development and wellbeing because we know that outstanding care starts with outstanding staff. The Role As a Residential Support Worker at Central & Southern, you will play a vital role in providing safe, therapeutic and nurturing care to children and young people living in our homes. You will become a consistent, trusted adult in a child s life, helping them to feel safe, develop positive relationships and achieve the best possible outcomes. Every interaction matters, from supporting a child through a difficult day at school to celebrating their achievements and helping them develop the skills they need for adulthood. This is a rewarding role, but it also comes with significant responsibility. You will be expected to maintain the highest standards of safeguarding, professionalism and child-centred practice at all times. Your responsibilities will include: Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of every child, recognising concerns, reporting them immediately and following safeguarding procedures without exception. Building positive, therapeutic relationships with children and young people while maintaining appropriate professional boundaries. Supporting children with their emotional wellbeing, education, health, family time, independence and daily routines. Using trauma-informed and therapeutic approaches to understand behaviour as communication, helping children regulate their emotions through consistency, empathy and clear boundaries. Planning and participating in activities that promote confidence, life skills and positive childhood experiences. Completing accurate, factual and timely records, including daily logs, incident reports, medication records and risk assessments. Administering medication safely in line with company policies and procedures. Working collaboratively with colleagues, families, social workers, schools, health professionals and other partner agencies. Maintaining a safe, clean and welcoming home environment where children feel secure and valued. Attending and actively participating in team meetings, supervisions and mandatory training. Acting as a positive role model, demonstrating professionalism, respect and integrity in every aspect of your work. Safeguarding is everyone s responsibility. You must be able to recognise signs of abuse, neglect, exploitation and other safeguarding concerns, taking immediate action in accordance with Central & Southern s safeguarding policies. You will be expected to share concerns promptly, record information accurately and work openly with managers and external professionals to protect children from harm. Working Pattern Our homes provide care 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Hourly £13.50 rate About Central & Southern Locations: Bodmin, Exeter and Credition At Central & Southern, we provide therapeutic residential care for children and young people who have experienced trauma, loss and adversity. Our homes are more than just places to live, they are safe, nurturing environments where children are supported to heal, grow and build brighter futures. We currently operate seven children s homes across Devon and Cornwall , giving our teams the opportunity to develop their careers within a growing organisation. We are passionate about promoting from within, and many of our Team Leaders, Deputy Managers, Registered Managers and senior leaders began their careers as Residential Support Workers. Our approach is therapeutic and relationship-based. We don t believe in simply managing behaviour. Instead, we recognise that behaviour is a form of communication. By building trusting relationships, remaining curious, and responding with empathy, consistency and clear boundaries, we help children feel safe, regulate their emotions and develop the confidence to thrive. Every day is different. One day you might be helping a young person prepare for school, the next you could be teaching them to cook, supporting them through a difficult conversation, celebrating an achievement, or creating lasting memories on a day out. It s these everyday moments, built on trust and consistency, that have the greatest impact. When you join Central & Southern, you re joining more than a team, you re joining a community that values its people just as much as the children we support. We invest heavily in training, development and wellbeing because we know that outstanding care starts with outstanding staff. The Role As a Residential Support Worker at Central & Southern, you will play a vital role in providing safe, therapeutic and nurturing care to children and young people living in our homes. You will become a consistent, trusted adult in a child s life, helping them to feel safe, develop positive relationships and achieve the best possible outcomes. Every interaction matters, from supporting a child through a difficult day at school to celebrating their achievements and helping them develop the skills they need for adulthood. This is a rewarding role, but it also comes with significant responsibility. You will be expected to maintain the highest standards of safeguarding, professionalism and child-centred practice at all times. Your responsibilities will include: Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of every child, recognising concerns, reporting them immediately and following safeguarding procedures without exception. Building positive, therapeutic relationships with children and young people while maintaining appropriate professional boundaries. Supporting children with their emotional wellbeing, education, health, family time, independence and daily routines. Using trauma-informed and therapeutic approaches to understand behaviour as communication, helping children regulate their emotions through consistency, empathy and clear boundaries. Planning and participating in activities that promote confidence, life skills and positive childhood experiences. Completing accurate, factual and timely records, including daily logs, incident reports, medication records and risk assessments. Administering medication safely in line with company policies and procedures. Working collaboratively with colleagues, families, social workers, schools, health professionals and other partner agencies. Maintaining a safe, clean and welcoming home environment where children feel secure and valued. Attending and actively participating in team meetings, supervisions and mandatory training. Acting as a positive role model, demonstrating professionalism, respect and integrity in every aspect of your work. Safeguarding is everyone s responsibility. You must be able to recognise signs of abuse, neglect, exploitation and other safeguarding concerns, taking immediate action in accordance with Central & Southern s safeguarding policies. You will be expected to share concerns promptly, record information accurately and work openly with managers and external professionals to protect children from harm. Working Pattern Our homes provide care 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. You will be required to work a rota that includes: 16 hour shifts Sleep-ins and waking nights (where applicable) Weekends and bank holidays Who We re Looking For We re looking for people with the right values as much as experience.
