Job description

At St John's College, part of Ambitious about Autism, we support autistic young people to develop confidence, independence and skills for adult life.

As a Waking Night Residential Support Worker, you will ensure our learners feel safe, secure and supported throughout the night. You will remain awake and alert, responding to individual needs and helping maintain a calm and structured home environment. This is a rewarding role where your vigilance, compassion and professionalism make a genuine difference.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Staying awake and vigilant to ensure learner safety and wellbeing

  • Carrying out regular checks of the home and responding to any concerns

  • Supporting learners with personal care and medical needs where required

  • Monitoring health needs in line with care plans

  • Completing accurate handovers and written records

  • Working collaboratively with night staff across residential homes

We are looking for someone who is calm, dependable and values-driven, able to work independently during the night while remaining connected to the wider team. You will need a strong commitment to safeguarding, good communication and written skills, emotional resilience and sound judgement, and a willingness to work flexibly.
