About Elder Elder is a UK live-in and visiting care introductory agency. We match self-employed carers with older people so they can stay in their own homes rather than move into residential care. Around 500 families use Elder at any one time, and about 14,000 days of care are arranged through the platform every month. Elder is an introductory agency rather than a regulated care provider. Carers are self-employed and contract directly with the customer. We run vetting, facilitate matching and support both sides. The role Safety and Trust makes sure the carers we introduce are properly checked, that our standards are applied consistently, and that concerns reach the right person quickly. The team is currently made up of registered nurses, and part of what it handles is clinical work that stays with them. The rest is a different profession. Compliance administration, standards casework and assurance reporting are their own discipline, and that is what this role is for. You will run our carer compliance operation end to end, own standards casework, and produce the reporting the team runs on. You will be the only non-clinical person in the team, which means real autonomy. You will report to the Head of Safety and Trust, who has a regulatory compliance background. What you will do Carer compliance • Own DBS and PVG orders and renewals end to end, staying ahead of the two-year re-check cycle., • Check and record right to work, proof of identity, power of attorney, insurance and training certificates, and chase what is missing or expiring., • Keep the compliance record permanently audit-ready. Handle day-to-day training access and system queries. Standards and first-line casework • Run carer standards cases from start to finish, including those raised when a carer leaves a placement early., • First line on satisfaction feedback, care profile reviews and carer queries, escalating against agreed triggers., • Establish the facts, apply the framework, record the outcome, and escalate what meets the criteria. Reporting and assurance • Produce the weekly pack: volumes, service-level performance, escalation rates and outstanding compliance items., • Run a monthly consistency check on a sample of closed cases., • Flag where recurring admin could be automated, templated or made self-serve, and make the case with queue data. What this role is not • You will not make clinical judgements or form a view on anyone’s condition. Eligibility criteria are set centrally and applied by our system; anything outside them goes to a clinician., • You will not carry out needs assessments or care planning. As an introductory agency, Elder does not do these things., • Safeguarding decisions sit with our Designated Safeguarding Lead. What you will bring Essential • Two to four years in a compliance or vetting role: pre-engagement checks, document verification, right to work, DBS or equivalent, renewal cycles. • Experience working a case queue to a service-level agreement in a CRM or ticketing system., • Accuracy under volume, and a record you can evidence to an auditor., • Level 3 safeguarding adults, or a commitment to complete it within three months of joining., • Working knowledge of the Care Act 2014 and how a concern reaches a local authority., • The judgement to escalate rather than improvise when a case falls outside the written rule., • Clear written English, discretion with sensitive personal information, and a working grasp of UK GDPR. Desirable • Recruitment or staffing compliance, vetting and right to work at volume., • Care, health or another regulated sector., • Local authority or NHS safeguarding business support or screening., • Reporting tools such as Looker. Not required • A clinical qualification, or registration with the NMC, HCPC or Social Work England. This role is designed not to need one. Benefits We’re a service business and we know that without the best people, we cannot build the best company which is why we treat our team very well. We can offer: Competitive Salary + Excellent Commission 25 days holiday + bank holidays + (1 extra day of holiday per year worked for first 5 years) (pro rota) 6 weeks work from anywhere in the world (pro rota) Private Health Insurance Remote working Learning and education budget (pro rota) Sponsored quarterly team and company socials Macbook + any particular extras you require AND a genuine opportunity to be a very key part of a high-growth business Do something you genuinely care about.

Proactive support. Proven outcomes. The Ember Project is a new supported accommodation service for young people aged 16–25. We are small, we are just starting, and we are deliberately built around one idea: every young person who comes to us should leave more capable than they arrived — and we should be able to prove it. That is not a slogan we put on a wall. It is how we plan, how we record, and how we measure whether we are doing a good job. If a young person moves on able to cook, budget, manage a tenancy, hold an appointment and speak up for themselves, we have succeeded. If they move on the same as they came in, we have not. We are looking for Key Workers who feel the same way about that. The role You will be the person a young person actually knows. Not a name on a rota — the person who notices they have gone quiet, who chases the college place, who sits with them the third time the bank card gets lost, and who genuinely celebrates the first meal they cook without help. Day to day, you will: Hold a small caseload and lead the key-work relationship with those young people Deliver planned key-work sessions on independence skills — budgeting, cooking, health, housing, education, employment and training, relationships, staying safe Build support plans with young people rather than for them. Their voice comes first in everything we write; your professional view supports it, it doesn't replace it Record clearly and honestly — progress, setbacks, incidents and outcomes — because good recording is how we evidence a young person's growth Support young people to access education, training, employment, health services and their local community Recognise and act on safeguarding and risk concerns, and escalate confidently when needed Work alongside social workers, personal advisors, health, education and other professionals Keep the home somewhere a young person is proud to live — practical support with the property, the routines and the day-to-day What we are actually looking for Experience helps. Attitude decides it. Our staff work independently, often alone in the home with a young person. There is no colleague on the next desk to pick up the slack. That means we need people who: Are proactive. You see what needs doing and you do it, rather than logging it for someone else Care visibly. Young people can tell within a week who means it. So can we Bring solutions, not just problems. When something isn't working, we want you coming to management with an idea. We would rather hear "here's what I think we should try" than "thought you should know" Are consistent. Turning up, on time, in the same mood, every time — for a young person who has had a lot of adults who didn't Can hold a boundary kindly. Warm and firm at the same time Write things down properly. Clear, factual, on time Essential Genuine interest in and empathy for care-experienced and vulnerable young people Ability to work on your own initiative and stay calm under pressure Good written English and confident basic IT skills (recording is done digitally) Willingness to complete an enhanced DBS check and provide full references Right to work in the UK 18+ (due to the nature of the role and lone working) Desirable — not essential, we will train you Previous experience in supported accommodation, residential childcare, youth work, homelessness, social care, education or a related field Level 3 Health and Social Care (Children and Young People) or equivalent, or willingness to work towards it Understanding of trauma-informed practice Full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle (essential) We welcome applications from people whose experience comes from life rather than a CV, including care-experienced applicants. What you get from us We ask a lot of our staff. In return, management's job is to make you good at this — not to leave you to it. Proper induction. A full induction day, shadow shifts, and a structured onboarding programme before you are working independently Real supervision. Regular, scheduled one-to-ones that are about your development, not just a compliance tick Training, paid. Safeguarding, first aid, food hygiene, trauma-informed practice, lone working, de-escalation and more. Support to work towards recognised qualifications Management you can actually reach. On-call support whenever you are on shift. You will never be left holding something on your own Autonomy that means something. You lead on your young people. Your ideas get heard and, when they are good, they get used — you are helping build how this service works Genuine progression. We are growing. Senior and team leader roles will come from within wherever we can, and we would rather promote someone we trained Flexible rotas. Shifts are planned in advance and we will work with your availability where we can The honest practicalities We would rather you know all of this now than find out in week three. This is a lone-working role. Most shifts you will be the only member of staff in the home. Full training, risk assessments, lone-working procedures and on-call backup are in place, but the reality is you working independently Sleep-in shifts are part of the service. We can be flexible for the right person, so tell us in your application what you can and can't commit to — we would rather build a rota around good people Shifts include evenings, weekends and bank holidays. Young people don't need support only on weekdays Zero-hours contract , with regular shifts available and hours increasing as the service grows Enhanced DBS, full employment history and references required. We follow safer recruitment fully — some questions will be direct Emotionally demanding work. It is also, on the good days, the most rewarding job you will ever have 0 Hour Contract - During this phase we will only be able to offer 0 hour contracts. Senior positions such as Senior Key Workers, and Team Leads will be salaried positions. How to apply Apply through Total Jobs with your CV and a short note — a few lines is fine — telling us: Why young people, and why this One example of a time you took the initiative when nobody asked you to We read every application and reply to everyone, successful or not. Interviews will be held virtually or in-person, with an informal chat first for anyone who wants to ask questions before applying. The Ember Project is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people. All appointments are subject to an enhanced DBS check and satisfactory references. We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all backgrounds TPBN1_UKTJ
