  * Experience working with children or young people

  * A caring, positive and child-centred approach.

  * Strong communication and teamwork skills.

  * The ability to remain calm under pressure.

  * A full UK driving licence (desirable).

Whether you're already qualified or looking to develop your career in children's residential care, this provider is committed to supporting your professional development.
