  • Solid background supporting young people with autism and behaviours that challenge.
  • Skilled in Team Teach and de-escalation strategies.
  • Comfortable supporting colleagues as well as children.
  • Physically fit, alert, and dependable.
  • Resilient and professional under pressure.

  • Salary 20% above sector average.
  • 36 days of specialist training per year.
  • Fully funded Level 3 Diploma (if not already held).
