From Cheltenham the drive takes you out into the countryside, and the route depends on which home you work at. Leaving before the morning rush keeps it straightforward, and a monthly mileage supplement helps with the cost.
A handful of young people in each home, so you know every one of them properly and they know you.
Your Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare is funded in full, and your salary goes up when you finish it.
Residential support worker roles do not include sleep-ins, so you go home at the end of your shift.
Half your childcare costs back, up to £5,000 a year, and a monthly mileage supplement.
Not reliably. Our homes are rural and shifts start early, so you need a full UK manual driving licence and a way to get there. We pay a monthly mileage supplement towards the drive.
The monthly mileage supplement helps with fuel, and the rota is published in advance, so you can plan around your week or share lifts.
It takes about ten minutes. If you are shortlisted, we invite you to meet us at our head office.
