7922 Project Worker 3 - Willowgrove Service

Barnardo's sets very high standards for the work we do with the children, young people and families we support.

We demonstrate every day through our work that we believe in children and we only want people to work with us who share our belief.

As a Project Worker 3 you will become not only part of the Barnardo's family, you will also become an extension of the care we work hard to bring to the lives of the children, young people and families we support.

Barnardo's has a range of residential services supporting children from the ages of 5 to 25 and these services cover the whole of Northern Ireland. 

Due to the impact of Covid19, our children and families require additional support and therefore our service is expanding. We are opening our service, 6 nights per week, with a reduced number of children to try to alleviate the pressures felt by our families in extremely difficult times. At present this will be a temporary increase, but it is hoped that funding will become available to allow this to be a permanent increase in service level which is why we need you!

We are looking for an experienced manager to fit into our existing management team to provide support and supervision to residential project workers and assist with the additional duties involved in the safe and smooth running of a short breaks residential home.
