By working as part of a joined-up service, you’ll help deliver positive, long-term outcomes and give young people the opportunity to thrive.
Get out what you put in You’ll take full ownership of the day-to-day running of the home, ensuring high standards of care, compliance and leadership. Managing Ofsted requirements will be central to your role, enabling young people to regain a sense of childhood and build pathways toward confident, independent adulthood.
You’ll also be involved in new referrals, confident that you’re offering a high-quality home within a leading specialist education and care provider in the UK.

  • Long-term incentive plan: 30% of salary accrued annually and paid as a future lump sum
Additional benefits include:
  • Comprehensive 4-week induction via our Care Academy
  • 7 weeks’ annual leave
  • Clear career progression, with many senior leaders promoted internally
  • Flexible benefits package (holiday, pension, life insurance options)
  • Wellbeing support and employee assistance programmes
  • Private healthcare and medical cover, including optical and dental claims
  • Meals provided while on shift
  • High-quality, well-resourced working environments
  • Recommend-a-friend bonus of £1,000
Bring your whole self to work We value individuality and believe diverse teams create the best outcomes for young people. You’ll be joining a supportive, forward-thinking organisation where inclusion, respect and personal development are genuinely encouraged.
