Short Breaks Leader

Liverpool Short Breaks Service

Barnardo's are launching a brand new service providing short breaks for children & young people in Liverpool aged 8-18, who have a wide range of special educational needs and disabilities.

The service offers both a short break to parents and quality play and leisure activities to children and young people with activities for a mixture of primary and secondary aged children.

Our short breaks will take the form of after school and weekend groups during term time and weekday groups during the school holidays.

If you want to make a difference to the lives of children, young people & their families then this is the role for you.

We are looking for highly motivated, compassionate and enthusiastic individuals to join our brand new team

Please refer to the supporting documents for further details regarding the role expectations.

When completing your application please refer to your skills knowledge and experience in relation to the Person Specification, Job Description and Additional Information document (if applicable). This should be done with an understanding of the context of the service described.

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 should be in place by 1st April 2023. This is a positive change for the charity, and a key pillar of our People & CultureStrategy. It will assist us in supporting colleagues to grow and develop in their career at Barnardo's.

Barnardo's offers a hybrid working model covered under our `Work from Anywhere' Framework, therefore vacancies advertised with this as an opportunity are open for applicants to either work from home or any location within the UK, including Barnardo's Hub/Office that is a reasonable distance from your home address.

Flexibility

Barnardo's believe in creating equality of opportunity in the workplace and supporting people to manage their work-life balance; we are therefore open to offering flexible working arrangements.
