About Us: At Leverstock Children’s Care, we aspire to do things differently.
We are committed to creating a nurturing, therapeutic environment where children feel safe, valued, and supported to reach their full potential.
We are an ambitious and growing organisation with high expectations for the quality of care we provide. Our focus is on building meaningful relationships, promoting positive outcomes, and creating opportunities for children to thrive.

The role: As a Senior Residential Care Worker, you will play a key role in both supporting children and leading shifts within the home.

This is a hands-on role where no two days are the same. You will also take on additional responsibilities to support the running of the home and development of the team.

One day you could be:

Supporting a young person through a challenging situation
Leading a shift and guiding the team
Supporting less experienced staff members
Attending or contributing to meetings and care planning
Taking part in activities, routines, and day-to-day care

You will:

Lead shifts and ensure the home runs smoothly in the absence of management
Support, guide, and role model for Residential Care Workers
Build positive, trusting relationships with children
Promote emotional wellbeing, independence, and resilience
Safeguard and protect children at all times
Contribute to care planning and risk assessments
Ensure accurate recording and reporting

Who we are looking for: We are more interested in who you are than just what you’ve done.

This role is perfect for:

Experienced Residential Care Workers ready to take the next step
Existing Senior Residential Care Workers looking for a fresh challenge
Individuals who are ready to take on more responsibility while still being hands-on

We are looking for people who:

Have a genuine passion for making a difference in young people’s lives
Bring energy, positivity, and a sense of fun to their work
Are confident in supporting others and leading by example
Can stay calm, resilient, and solution-focused in challenging situations
Are motivated to grow, develop, and progress within the sector
Want to be part of a team that is striving to do things differently

If you’re someone who enjoys building relationships, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and is ready to step up and support others, this could be the role for you.

If you’ve ever thought “I’m ready for more responsibility but still want to be hands-on and make a difference every day” we’d love to hear from you.

Progression Opportunities: At Leverstock Children’s Care, we are committed to investing in our people and developing the leaders of tomorrow. We recognise that progression and development are essential in building strong, confident teams and delivering high-quality care.

We actively support our staff to take the next step in their careers, providing opportunities to build leadership skills, increase responsibility, and grow within the organisation.

This role offers a clear progression into:

Deputy Manager

Experience working with children and young people (preferably in a residential setting)
