· Is organised, reliable and able to work well as part of a multidisciplinary team.

· Can stay calm and responsive in emergency situations.

· Is committed to safeguarding, equality and professional integrity.

Hours: 29.25 hrs per week. Mon 9.15 am – 4.00 pm, Tues-Friday 9.15 am to 3.30 pm

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will need to undergo an enhanced DBS check and provide satisfactory references.
