Location: Mansfield
Salary: £90 - £120 per day (inclusive of holiday pay)

We are seeking an empathetic specialist to support learners with Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties (PMLD) and complex needs, ensuring they receive the highest standard of care and education.
Why Join Us?
🌟 A Holistic Approach to Care: This role goes beyond traditional teaching support. You will play a vital part in each student's complete well-being by assisting with personal care, implementing postural management programs, and following individual care plans to ensure every child feels safe, respected, and comfortable.
🏫 Build Lasting Connections: Enjoy the stability of a full-time, temporary role (Monday to Friday, 8:30 am - 3:30 pm) within a single, welcoming school. This consistency allows you to build meaningful, trusting relationships with the students you support.
📚 Invest in Your Future: We are committed to your professional growth. Successful candidates will receive complimentary access to specialized training, including courses in Makaton/PECS, Safe Moving and Handling, Intensive Interaction, and strategies for supporting students with ASD and complex medical needs.
💰 Refer & Reward: Know someone perfect for this role? Refer a friend or colleague through our scheme and receive a £75 Love2Shop voucher as our thank you.
Who We're Looking For:
The ideal candidate will possess a blend of experience, skill, and empathy:
Proven Specialist Experience: Essential background working with individuals who have PMLD, complex physical disabilities, or severe autism, whether in a care or educational setting. Practical knowledge of tube feeding, hoisting, or managing epilepsy is highly desirable.
Qualification & Mindset: A Level 2 or 3 qualification in Health and Social Care or Supporting Teaching and Learning is beneficial. However, we equally value substantial hands-on experience combined with a naturally caring and empathetic approach.
Commitment to Safeguarding: A current Enhanced DBS on the Update Service is essential. If you do not have one, you must be willing to process an application immediately.
If you are driven by the belief that every child deserves an advocate and possess the specialized skills to make a profound difference, we want to hear from you.
