The posting

Are you ready to transform young lives while building a career you can be proud of?

Esland's Preston home is looking for a Children’s Residential Care Worker to join our passionate, dedicated team. Every day here is full of purpose, growth, and the chance to make a difference to a young person's life.

Pear Tree Cottage is a two-bed service which provides a calm and engaged environment for a young person that would benefit from a smaller home setting.

Using PACE principles and a child-led, therapeutic approach, we help children aged 8 to 18 to overcome adverse and traumatic experiences.

About the role:

You’ll be part of a group of like-minded individuals, working in a role that truly makes a difference. Our staff are able to build nurturing, trusting relationships with our young people and act as their professional parents. Your duties will include (but will not be limited to):

  • Supporting your young person with emotional regulation, daily routines, and personal development
  • Keeping detailed records and promote safeguarding at all times
  • Supporting your young person with fun activities, their personal interests, education access and engagement and household responsibilities

What We Can Offer

  • A competitive salary of £33,682 to £34,305* per annum (depending on qualification held)
  • A day off for your birthday (in addition to your holiday entitlement)
  • A casual dress code
  • Free food while you are on shift
  • Enhanced pay rates for overtime and bank holidays
  • Comprehensive induction and ongoing training (accredited by the Bild Association)
  • Career development opportunities – we had over 100 internal promotions last year!
  • Access to an Employee Assistance Program, online GP, online counselling, healthcare and cashback, discounts and gift vouchers (through our employee rewards app)
  • A supportive team environment
  • Genuine job satisfaction
  • Much more!

*Estimated salary based on an a pay rate of £13.45 to £13.75 per hour (days) and £60 per sleep night (working 8 sleeps per month on average)

What We Need from You

Experience within care, education, mental health support and/or youth activities is highly desirable, but we equally value transferrable skills and the right personality traits for the role.

What we definitely need:

  • A full driving licence issued in the UK
  • Applicants with full right to work in the UK with no restrictions
  • Values in line with Esland's, such as taking a therapeutic, person-centred approach to childcare
  • A calm, compassionate and resilient approach
  • The ability to recognise the tough days matter just as much as the good days
  • Due to industry regulations, applicants must be aged 21 or above (essential)
  • A commitment to working 48-hour shifts, including sleep-ins (paid), followed by a 4 day break (we are a 365 service offering structured shifts, paid bank holidays and opportunities for overtime)

Successful employment is subject to satisfactory Full Enhanced Disclosure, right to work and reference checks in line with government regulations and Safer Recruitment Practices (the company will cover the costs).

All young people are equally entitled to have their needs met in a fair and balanced way. Esland employees are responsible for promoting equal opportunities for all and for challenging any behaviour or practice which discriminates against any young person or colleague on the grounds of race, religion, disability, age, gender, sexual orientation, or any other perceived difference.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
