You will meet a variety of children and young people, some of whom may require high levels of supervision and support.
Using your experience and skills (further developed with our support and training), you will assist with the care of our children and young people, supporting them in all aspects of their lives including activities, hobbies and educational pursuits.
Consistency and organisation skills are key: you will create timetables and set boundaries and expectations for the children.

We supply excellent support and professional supervision, plus regular training and further qualification opportunities.
Compass knows how to make a house a home. We understand that a home can embody how we live and see ourselves, so our teams create a home environment that exceeds the children's needs, allowing them to express their characters, feel safe and enrich their lives. We pride ourselves on giving children who experience behavioural and emotional difficulties the highest quality care and substitute parenting.
The successful applicants will be appointed subject to references and enhanced DBS check.
Compass is an equal opportunity employer that is committed to diversity and inclusion in the workplace. Above all we thrive on our ethos “Potential Not Perfection”, meaning we will consider ALL applications.
At Compass, our strength comes from the values we live by every day – Integrity, Care and Courage. These aren’t just words that we put on our website or on a poster; they’re visible in the actions you take to support children, families and each other, often in ways that go unseen.
That’s why we are launching the Compass Values Awards, to spotlight actions that embody Integrity, Care or Courage across all parts of our community.
