Children Residential Support Worker

£33.68k - £34.31k per annum

Department: Residential

Location: Ivy Cottage - Nelson

Compensation: £33,682 - £34,305 / year

Are you someone who believes every young person deserves the chance to thrive?

At Esland, we provide trauma‑informed, therapeutic care for children aged 8 to 18, many of whom have encountered adverse childhood experiences and complex trauma. Our fantastic staff help them feel safe, understood, and able to build brighter futures.

Our solo home based in Nelson, Burnley, is seeking a full-time children’s support worker to complete our dedicated and highly valued team.

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:

  • 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
  • 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)

What we can offer

  • A competitive salary of £33,682 to £34,305 per annum, depending on qualifications 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 working 8 sleep nights per months on average, at £60 per sleep night.

What we're looking for

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.

Essential requirements

  • 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)

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.

If you’re ready to apply, we would love you to be a part of our young person’s journey!
