About the Role

Exciting Opportunity to Grow and Develop as a Young Person Mentor!

Join our team and gain invaluable experience by working alongside and learning from our Senior Leaders. This opportunity is designed to help you develop your career and become an outstanding Young Person Mentor while working towards a Level 3 NVQ in Residential Childcare.

In this role, you’ll play a key part in delivering and upholding our company standards, projects, and initiatives within our Homes. Your responsibilities will include capturing and recording progress on our electronic systems, ensuring we maintain a balance between creating a nurturing environment for the best outcomes for young people and staying compliant with all relevant legislative requirements.

Don’t worry—you’re not in this alone. We are committed to excellence and believe that to be the best, we must learn from the best. That’s why we are dedicated to hiring, supporting, and developing top talent.
