Job description
Are you a Positive Behaviour Support Practitioner looking to make a meaningful impact on the lives of young people with disabilities while they are at college?
We are looking for someone to join our team based on our main site in Ullenwood, on the outskirts of Cheltenham. In this role you will work 40 hours per week during our term times and 28 hours a week during the holidays to support the students that remain with us all year round.
The role will require someone who is patient, caring and compassionate with excellent observational skills. You will not be fazed when asked to manage emotionally challenging situations, drawing upon your creativity and problem-solving skills.
You will be joining a professional and experienced team who will support you in your role, but you should also be able to work autonomously, managing your own caseload. Multi-disciplinary working is also essential as you will be working collaboratively with other professionals to develop individual Behaviour Support Plans. Part of your role will see you providing professional advice, training and information to colleagues, families and carers.
We would expect you to understand Functional Analysis and the Positive Behaviour Support approach to support disabled young people and adults in improving their quality of life and reducing occasions and/or intensity of distressed and dysregulated behaviour.
Our Emotional Wellbeing Service is highly regarded with bags of potential for future career progression.

The hours above equate to a full time role at a salary of £26,000 – £28,500 depending on your level of experience.
Closing date for this role is 16th August – Interviews will be held 20th August
