Create Safety. Build Belonging. Help Children Grow.

Barnardo's is looking for a compassionate, values‑driven Registered Manager to lead Jarvis House, a small, nurturing residential home supporting children at a time when safety, stability, and kindness matter most.

Jarvis House supports up to three children through short‑ to medium‑term placements, including emergency admissions when no suitable alternative is immediately available. It offers a therapeutic, trauma‑informed environment where children can begin to feel safer, happier, healthier, and more hopeful, and where they are supported to heal, grow, and thrive.

This is not just about running a home. It's about creating a calm, structured space where relationships come first, experiences are understood with compassion, and children are supported to prepare for what comes next.

What Jarvis House Offers Children

Each child's time at Jarvis House is shaped by a sensitive, holistic assessment that helps us understand their experiences, strengths, and needs. Our team works closely with children to help them recover from trauma, build emotional resilience, and develop vital life skills. When children move on, whether to a foster family, a longer‑term placement, or back home, they do so with stronger foundations and greater confidence in themselves.

As one colleague put it:

“Jarvis House gives children breathing space. We slow things down, really listen, and help them believe in themselves again.”

Your Role

As Registered Manager, you will:

• Lead a small, committed team with warmth, clarity, and consistency
• Create a therapeutic, trauma‑informed environment where children feel safe and supported to thrive
• Hold the balance between structure and nurture, especially during emergency and transition placements
• Ensure high‑quality care, safeguarding, and regulatory compliance
• Embed relational, child‑centred practice in everyday decision‑making
• Support staff through reflective supervision and development
• Work collaboratively with families, social workers, and partner agencies

One of our managers describes the leadership culture at Barnardo's like this:

“You're trusted to lead in a way that feels human. You're supported, challenged, and never expected to do it alone.”

What Children Tell Us Matters

“I need people who don't leave when things get hard.”
 “Feeling safe helps me think about what comes next.”

As Registered Manager, you will keep these voices at the centre of your leadership.

What We're Looking For

You'll be someone who:

• Has experience leading or managing within residential children's services
• Understands trauma, attachment, and emotionally informed care
• Holds (or is working towards) a Level 5 Leadership and Management qualification
• Leads with curiosity, compassion, and emotional resilience
• Believes that strong relationships are the foundation of great care
• Wants to make a genuine difference in children's lives

Why Join Barnardo's?

At Barnardo's, values are more than words on a page. They shape how we lead, how we support staff, and how we care for children.

“I stay because the care is real, for the children and for us as staff.”
 “We're encouraged to reflect, to learn, and to keep getting better.”

You'll be part of an organisation that invests in its people and believes that when staff feel supported, children thrive too.

About Care4Calais and the Legal Access Department

Care4Calais is a volunteer-based charity providing essential aid and support for refugees in France and the UK.

In northern France we operate year-round from Calais, working alongside communities in Calais and Dunkirk to provide warm clothing, bedding and service provision to displaced people who live in difficult and dangerous conditions.

Across the UK we collect and distribute clothes, shoes, mobile phones and other essential items, as well as providing psycho social support and interaction, including language lessons, sport and music workshops. We also help with vital access to medical and educational services.

Our Legal Access Department is an access to justice project that exists to support people seeking asylum in the UK by facilitating access to legal representation and offering holistic support to people throughout the asylum process. The department, made up mostly of specially trained volunteers, works tirelessly to ensure that people feel informed, empowered, and far less isolated and alone. We conduct one-to-one, complex casework for people seeking asylum for a variety of matters, over the years we have supported thousands of people to secure legal representation. Our current casework channels include securing legal representation and support for people’s asylum claims, challenges to unsuitable accommodation and potential removal from the UK (for example under the current UK-France ‘One in One out’ deal), and support for young people in their age dispute matters.

We can discuss why you would like to apply for the role and what skills or experiences you have which could be relevant.

The recruitment process will include two interview stages which will both be conducted online. We will be reviewing applications as they arrive and reserve the right to close the advert before the closing date.

As part of our membership, we are dedicated to creating inclusive employment practices that recognise and accommodate the unique circumstances and strengths of people with lived experience. We actively move away from a one-size-fits-all approach, ensuring our recruitment processes are fair, supportive, and accessible.

We warmly encourage applicants with lived experience to make use of the guidance and resources available on the EBE website (ebeemployment). In addition, applicants with lived experience are welcome to connect with the EBE support team for tailored assistance with completing the application form and, where available, one-to-one interview preparation.

Importantly, we recognise the significant cultural, linguistic, and experiential insights that individuals with lived experience of the UK asylum system bring to this role. As such, all applicants from this background who meet the essential criteria will be automatically shortlisted and invited to interview. If you are a candidate with lived experience, please let us know in your application. We respect that people’s identity is not defined by their past experiences and will not expect candidates to describe their lived experience at interview unless they wish to do so.

If you have any questions about this or need additional support with the application process for any reason, please contact us at admin [@] care4calais .org
