About the Role

We require four Play Workers to join our service, where we provide clubs and play schemes for children and young people with learning difficulties. The clubs are all based within schools in East Sussex. Your main duties will consist of providing fun activities with the children, personal care, and completing paperwork. We also organise exciting residential holidays for children. You will need to be enthusiastic, a good team player and really enjoy working with children who have additional needs. Experience is not essential, as we offer an excellent induction and training programme. We look forward to hearing from you.
