About the role
The Jewish Board is seeking a Senior Direct Support Professional to work with children and adolescents in a community residence. You will supervise, care for, and support youths in line with individualized service plans, providing trauma-informed, therapeutic guidance within a collaborative treatment team. Responsibilities include supervising day-to-day activities, coordinating with families and schools, and delivering crisis intervention when needed.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
