This is a key leadership role where you will work closely with the Registered Manager to shape the home’s culture, support and develop staff, and ensure the highest standards of care are consistently delivered. You’ll play a vital part in creating a safe, nurturing, and therapeutic environment where children with EBD, trauma, and complex needs can thrive and achieve positive outcomes.

Our teams are made up of committed “professional parents” who go above and beyond every day, and our homes provide the structure, support, and warmth children need to succeed.

All young people are equally entitled to have their needs met in a fair and balanced way. Esland

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.
