The Vacancy

Are you a qualified skilled support worker looking for your next move? Join Quarriers Countryview and work in a place children choose to come back to time and time again.

Your new opportunity 

At Countryview Short Breaks Service, we provide high-quality short breaks for children and young people with disabilities, creating a space where they can relax, have fun, build independence and spend time with others.

Our service is more than just a place to stay - it’s somewhere children build familiarity, confidence and positive memories. Many return again and again, forming relationships and enjoying their time in a safe, homely and supportive environment.

As an Intensive Support Practitioner, you’ll play a key role in making this experience consistent and reassuring - ensuring children feel safe, settled and supported.

Working over a 7-day rota, you’ll provide person-centred support to children and young people with a range of complex needs. We are offering part time contracts 15 hours to 30 hours per week. Paying an hourly rate of £15.02 per hour.

This includes:

  • Creating a warm, calm and homely environment
  • Supporting children with medical, personal care and wellbeing needs
  • Responding sensitively to anxieties or distressed behaviours during the night
  • Monitoring wellbeing and promoting rest and comfort
  • Recording information clearly and respectfully

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for people who:

  • Hold relevant qualifications and experience in supporting children and young people in residential, care, education, or community settings
  • Take a trauma-informed and person-centred approach to their work
  • Have excellent communication and relationship-building skills
  • Are patient, resilient, and passionate about supporting children to reach their potential
  • Work well as part of a team and contribute positively to the service
  • Are committed to delivering high-quality support and positive outcomes
