At Aspris, we believe that all young people deserve the best chance to grow, develop and receive support that prepares them for a bright future. Our Residential Support Workers are crucial in helping us to achieve our vision.
What the role looks like
As a Residential Support Worker,you'll provide emotional support to our young people and help with day-to-day activities such as getting washed, dressed and out to school. if you are working a shift during the weekend, you will barely be on-site at the home because the fun is elsewhere - think theme parks, bowling alleys, cinemas and zoos. You'll have so much fun that you'll almost forget you're at work.
With the good times will come challenging times, with our homes accommodating young people with autism, learning difficulties, social, emotional and mental health needs. Although our Residential Support Workers tell us that the strong relationships and lasting memories that you create together will more than make up for these challenges. For them, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing a young person overcome difficulties and progress.
As a member of our residential care team, you will strive to bring out the best in every young person by supporting and guiding them in their daily lives. This could be in the form of helping the young person at school, accompanying them to take part in an activity or simply assisting them in completion of general daily tasks, including morning and night-time routines.
Due to the location candidates must have a Full UK driving licence.
Who we're looking for
We're looking for compassionate, friendly and genuinely caring individuals who want to give our young people the best possible chance to succeed.
If you're the type of person who:
Thrives as part of a team
Is resilient, patient and understanding
Has a natural flair for making people smile
Is always around to lend a listening ear
Is partial to a film night, baking or Xbox game
This could be the perfect role for you. And don't worry if you don't have any experience working with children, we will provide all the support and training you need to build a fulfilling career that you can be proud of, including fully funded qualifications.
What's in it for you
We provide a supportive and collaborative working environment where you can flourish in your career and feel incredibly rewarded by helping those who need it most. We also understand that not everyone can do set shifts, so we're very flexible with hours to suit your needs.
On top of this, you'll also get access to a range of fantastic benefits including:
Healthcare cash plan, wellbeing support and loans
An exclusive rewards and benefits platform
High-street and online discounts through Blue Light Card
Cycle to work scheme and gym membership
Refer a friend bonus scheme
Learning and development opportunities
Hours that suit your lifestyle
Explore these further in our guide to benefits and pensions .
So, if you're ready to join a values-led organisation that puts children at the heart of everything we do and genuinely cares about their employees, we'd love to hear from you.
