Is This You?

Do you see a difficult child — or a child in difficulty?

At Lifestyles Residential Services, we believe the difference lies in perspective — and in the people who care enough to look deeper.

We are looking for compassionate, resilient and motivated individuals to join our residential team supporting children and young people who have experienced trauma, disruption and adversity.

Whether you are an experienced Residential Care Worker or a qualified Social Worker, this role offers the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with young people and play a vital role in helping them feel safe, valued and supported.

This role combines the relational care and practical support of residential work with the opportunity for qualified social workers to utilise their professional training within a therapeutic residential environment.

The Role

You will work as part of a supportive team providing a safe, nurturing and structured home environment for children and young people.

Your role will include:

Building meaningful and trusting relationships with young people
Supporting young people through trauma-informed care approaches
Promoting emotional regulation, stability and positive life skills
Supporting daily routines including education, health and wellbeing
Contributing to care planning and risk management processes
Working collaboratively with families, social workers and external professionals
Maintaining accurate records and contributing to team discussions and reviews

For qualified Social Workers, the role also offers opportunities to contribute professional insight to care planning and therapeutic approaches within the home.

Essential Criteria

Applicants must demonstrate:

Minimum Level 3 qualification in Health & Social Care (or related subject)
At least 1 year experience working in a care or support role
Experience working with children, young people or vulnerable individuals
A strong understanding of safeguarding and child protection principles
Ability to work as part of a team in a dynamic residential environment
Good communication and relationship-building skills
Flexibility to work shifts, including evenings and weekends

Desirable Criteria

Degree in Social Work
Registration with NISCC (or ability to register)
Experience working in children’s residential care
Understanding of trauma-informed practice, attachment and ACEs
Training in Therapeutic Crisis Intervention (TCI) or similar models

Newly Qualified Social Workers (AYE)

Applications are welcomed from Newly Qualified Social Workers undertaking or preparing for their Assessed Year in Employment (AYE).

This role offers an excellent opportunity for Social Work graduates to gain valuable experience in a therapeutic residential care environment, develop strong relational practice skills, and build a pathway into leadership roles within residential services.

What We Offer

At Lifestyles Residential Services, we invest in our people.

Structured induction and training programme
Opportunities for professional development and career progression
Supportive and experienced leadership team
Ongoing training in trauma-informed care and TCI
A positive team culture built on compassion, integrity, teamwork and fun

For the right person, this is more than a job — it’s a chance to change lives.
