About You As a Break Senior Support Worker, you’ll be working hands-on day in day out with the young people living in the children’s home and act as the senior shift worker in the staff team.

Break’s solo children’s homes offer these individuals the full attention they need to be able to thrive. You’ll work with a tight-knit team of colleagues to build a relationship and trust bond with the young people living at the home. You’ll be patient, a positive role model, supporting them in overcoming their previous trauma and learning to trust in adults again, along with the help and guidance of your colleagues and Break’s therapeutic services.
