We Are Beams are looking for staff to join our team. You will work on a 1:1 basis with a young person at our respite unit in Hextable, as well as out in the community.
Your role will be supporting disabled children and young people in a short break environment, enabling each young person to fully participate in activities of their choice, providing support as needed for personal care and personal development and encouraging them to take part in social activities in the community.

We are flexible and can arrange shift patterns around you! Successful applicants will need to have an Enhanced DBS Disclosure.
