An opportunity to join our existing dynamic team within Clayfields House.

This is no ordinary job so we need extraordinary people.

Help us to make a difference to the lives of young people in trouble. We believe everyone can achieve ‘positive change’ and we need ‘positive thinkers’ to create a centre of excellence for young people who are sentenced, on remand or on a welfare order.

Clayfields House is a Secure Children’s Home providing an intensive service to young people who are vulnerable, at risk to themselves or others, and/or placed in secure accommodation due to offending behaviour or a risk to themselves or from the community. We work with males and females aged between the ages of 10-18 and we need to recruit team players who want the rich rewards of working with some of the most challenging but rewarding young people in the UK.

Situated in Stapleford Nottingham, just a few miles from the M1 we are easy to reach and we welcome enquiries for this post.

Your role will involve enrichment activities and day to day life skills with the young people in one of our three house units accommodating up to six young people. You will be a team player, more interested in solutions than problems, and resilient enough to act as an anchor to young people who need safety, contentment and a new sense of direction in life.

Enhancements will be paid for evening and weekend shifts.

For informal discussion regarding this position, please telephone 01159170010 and ask to speak to the Duty Manager.

Appointment to this post is subject to a Disclosure and Barring Service check.
