Gap Homes Stirling has an office base and self-contained tenancies for young people who are supported during their stay and as they move on to independence. Young people are also provided with support in the community to set up and prevent any breakdown of their future tenancy.

The post holder will be expected to be flexible, work as part of a team and communicate well with young people, their families and networks, professionals and others.

You will receive induction, support, learning, development and training. Whilst the post is based in Stirling there may be occasional times when cover is required for our alternative site.

We are looking for As and When staff to join our Gap Homes Stirling Service with the following experience –

• A relevant qualification in children's services – preferably SVQ 3 or above or the willingness to work towards a qualification which ensures compliance with SSSC and Care Inspectorate Registration
• Knowledge/skills and experience of working with children and young people with a range of complex needs and issues including substance use, mental health, offending behaviour, trauma, bereavement, CSE and other adversities.
• Experience of working in partnership with a range of agencies including those working within housing support and 16+ services.

We know that our colleagues go above and beyond in delivering our vital work, driven by their passion and commitment to Barnardo's values.  We also know that we can only realise our ambitions and achieve better outcomes for more children, thanks to the talent, hard work and creativity of our people. 

For all these reasons, we are committed to a new approach to pay and reward, to ensure it is fair, attractive and progressive, which was rolled out in April 2023. This is a positive change for the charity, and a part of our People & Culture Strategy. It will assist us in supporting colleagues to belong, thrive and grow in their colleague journey at Barnardo's and in time will offer clear routes of progression for colleagues in both their career and their pay.
