About the role

North Star run a growing group of children's homes across Berkshire and Surrey, supporting children with EBD, CSE and CCE. They staff every home to 120 percent so children always have familiar faces around them, which means real investment in people rather than running teams thin. With homes across four locations there is a genuine ladder here from Residential Support Worker through to Deputy, Registered Manager and a company wide Responsible Individual post. Sleep ins are paid at £60, holiday is 240 hours a year on care roles and they promote from within as new homes open.

What the job involves

Direct care with the children in the home. Key work, daily routines, school runs, activities, recording and building the relationships that actually change how a child does. Mixed shifts with sleep ins.
