Youth team manager jobs in godstone, surrey
At Hestia, we are guided by our core values and are dedicated to fostering an equitable, diverse, and inclusive organisation. Our mission is to empower individuals to rebuild their lives and achieve independence. Right now, we are looking for a Pool Worker to play a pivotal role in our Criminal Justice service in Streatham.
Sounds great, what will I be doing?
This role involves working within an Approved Premises (AP) setting, supporting high-risk offenders as they transition from custody back into the community. It plays a vital role in public protection by providing a structured, supervised environment that promotes rehabilitation and pro-social behaviour. Staff act as positive role models and work closely with probation officers, the police, and community services to help residents engage with their sentence plans and access the support they need to reintegrate safely and responsibly into society.
Day-to-day responsibilities include engaging with residents, encouraging participation in communal routines such as meal preparation, and supporting purposeful activities. The role also involves monitoring curfews and drug/alcohol testing compliance, maintaining health and safety standards within t
he building, and ensuring all relevant information is recorded and shared appropriately. Strong communication, resilience, and a calm, consistent approach are essential, as is a willingness to work flexibly as part of a committed multi-agency team.
What do I need to bring with me?
You'll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires as well as match our values and mission.

Here's what the team will be looking for
This role requires someone who can maintain firm but fair boundaries, using authority in a legitimate and respectful way while engaging positively with individuals who may present complex emotional or behavioural challenges. A strong understanding of the impact of trauma is essential, along with the ability to remain calm, empathetic, and responsive when faced with difficult behaviours or communication styles. Optimism about people's capacity to change is key, as is the ability to engage in pro-social modelling that encourages rehabilitation and personal growth.
Candidates must be able to learn quickly, assess situations, and make sound, defensible decisions based on accurate information. Strong communication and teamwork skills are essential, as is the ability to record and share information appropriately and confidentially. A hands-on, practical attitude is required, including a willingness to participate in domestic tasks and communal activitie
s such as cooking and gardening. Knowledge of safeguarding practices and the ability to respond to related concerns appropriately is also critical for maintaining a safe and supportive environment.
