When adults and young people hit their absolute lowest points, they need more than just standard care-they need a lifeline.

We are building an elite, rapid-response specialist support team to step into high-stakes, crisis situations.

This is fast-paced, high-reward emergency response work. You will:

• Create Safe Havens: Deploy to various locations to stabilize crisis situations and establish safe environments.

• Drive Positive Change: Engage individuals in daily activities, structure, appointments, and family contact.

• Manage Heightened Behaviours: Use your advanced de-escalation expertise to handle challenging situations safely and confidently.

• Shape the Future: Keep meticulous daily records to help build long-term care plans.

• Top-Tier Pay: Earn potential £40k+ dynamic annual equivalent or premium hourly rates.

• Predictability in Chaos: A rolling rota that offers true consistency and work-life predictability.

• Total Backing: Work within a tight-knit, fiercely supportive team with 24/7 backing from your local Randstad specialists.

• Growth: Access to professional training to continuously sharpen your specialist skill set.

• A valid Driver's Licence & business insurance (ready to travel to multiple locations).

• Proven experience handling crisis support, complex behaviors, and emergency decision-making.

• An active PVG membership and regulatory body registration.

• PMVA training (or the absolute willingness to undergo it immediately).
