Join Barnardo's: Make a Difference to Young Lives

Barnardo's is a compassionate service provider supporting young people who have experienced trauma. Our Highland Clover service, developed in partnership with Highland Council, offers tailored care for young people with complex trauma and additional support needs. We aim to provide a safe, nurturing environment where young people can heal, grow, and thrive.

Clover stands for Care, Love, and Respect—the values that underpin everything we do and guide our approach to supporting young people and each other. We are seeking an empathetic, skilled individual to join our team and help us deliver on The Promise—ensuring every child's right to a safe, happy, and fulfilling childhood.

About the Role:

The Highland Clover service currently provides two support packages one of which is a 24-hour residential care service and the other provides bespoke individual care and wellbeing support. These innovative services are designed specifically for our young people for whom conventional support packages have not been appropriate. We are excited to be pioneering this new care model.

What We're Looking For:

  • A passion for improving young people's lives
  • Empathy and experience in trauma-informed care
  • Ability to champion and advocate for young people
  • Creative, proactive, and willing to bring new ideas to support their journey

Why Barnardo's?

  • Impactful Work: Be part of a team that is transforming the way care is delivered and making a positive impact on young people's lives.
  • Inclusive Environment: We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and experiences.
  • Supportive Team: Work alongside a dedicated, passionate team where your contributions are valued.

Residential Care Involvement: This role involves working in a residential care setting, providing round-the-clock support to young people.
