We’re looking for an experienced and passionate senior support worker (internally known as a residential team leader) to join our dedicated team at Branas Isaf Children’s Services, part of the Care Tech Group – one of the UK’s leading providers of therapeutic care and education.

This is more than just a job – it’s a chance to make a genuine difference in the lives of young people with complex emotional and behavioural needs.

• Minimum 12 months’ experience in a children’s residential care setting
• QCF Level 3 in Children & Young People (or equivalent) – essential
• Experience leading or supervising teams
• Full UK manual driving licence – essential (rural location)
• Willingness to work long days, sleep-ins, evening and weekends
• Able to be part of the on-call management rota.

As a residential team leader, you'll play a vital role in supporting young people to achieve their potential and thrive within a therapeutic, structured and nurturing environment.

• Lead by example to support and develop your team
• Promote positive routines, structure and behaviour
• Act as a key worker and mentor to young people
• Support care planning, reviews and reporting
• Foster a safe, stable and caring home environment
• Liaise with multi-disciplinary teams and families
• New staff must be comfortable using an electronic care recording system on a daily basis to document, monitor, and update children and young people’s records accurately.

• £500 Welcome bonus (T&Cs apply)
• Competitive salary plus enhanced rates for qualified staff
• A compressed shift pattern means fewer working days and more consecutive days off — ideal for maintaining a healthy work–life balance
• Fully funded Leadership & Management training programmes
• 4-week paid induction + ongoing face-to-face therapeutic training
• Access to free online learning across a wide range of topics
• Free Enhanced DBS check
• Company vehicle to use during working hours

• Opportunities for career progression within a national provider
• Refer a Friend Scheme – earn up to £1,000 per successful referral

At Branas Isaf, we believe in:

Empowerment – helping young people build confidence and independence
Respect – treating everyone with dignity and compassion
Teamwork – working together to create a safe and supportive environment

This isn’t just a job, it’s a chance to change lives, one extraordinary day at a time.
