About the Role
Looking for a role that fits around your life while making a genuine difference to children and young people?
As a Children's Support Worker – Flexible Hours , you'll join Compass Community on a zero hours contract , giving you the flexibility to choose shifts that work for you while supporting our children's homes and specialist schools.
Every shift is different. One day you could be helping a young person build confidence in one of our residential homes, and the next supporting pupils in a specialist classroom. Whatever the setting, you'll be helping children feel safe, valued and able to achieve their potential.
Whether you're looking for additional hours alongside another role, returning to work, studying, or simply want greater flexibility, this is an opportunity to be part of a team that changes lives.
What You'll Be Doing
You'll work across our Residential and Education services, helping wherever support is needed.
Your role may include:
- Building positive, trusting relationships with children and young people.
- Supporting emotional wellbeing, confidence and independence.
- Encouraging participation in education, activities and daily routines.
- Providing a safe, caring and nurturing environment.
- Supporting positive behaviour using therapeutic approaches.
- Assisting with learning and classroom activities within our specialist schools.
- Helping children develop life skills and achieve their individual goals.
- Working alongside experienced Residential, Education and Therapeutic teams.
- Promoting safeguarding and ensuring the highest standards of care at all times.
- You must be able to travel within Worcestershire for this role
No two days are ever the same, but every day offers the opportunity to make a lasting impact.
Who We're Looking For
We're looking for caring, resilient and enthusiastic people who are passionate about improving the lives of children and young people.
You'll ideally have:
- Excellent communication and people skills.
- The ability to build positive relationships quickly.
- A flexible approach and willingness to work across different services and locations.
- A commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children.
- The ability to work both independently and as part of a team.
Experience in residential childcare, education, youth work, social care, health care or support work is beneficial but not essential. If you have the right values, we'll provide the training and support you need to succeed.
A full UK driving licence is desirable.
