We have an exciting opportunity for a dedicated, enthusiastic and motivated individual to join our team.

We are looking for someone with basic DIY skills, able to paint and decorate, construct flat pack furniture, and be fit and able help to provide general practical assistance around the hub.

As part of our ambitious plans, we are working closely with North Yorkshire County Council to adopt and adapt their pioneering No Wrong Door – Strengthening Families Protecting Children (SFPC) programme to support young people who are within or on the edge of the care system. Bringing together a team of specialists through a central hub, our new model, named New Roads is designed to provide intensive short-term interventions to prevent entry into care, escalation to long term care, prevent placement breakdown or facilitate placement step downs.
