Our Story

Radian Group is a specialist staffing and recruitment business focused on children’s residential care. We understand that a successful placement is about more than filling a rota: staff must be suitable for the setting, able to work within a home’s routines and committed to respectful, child-centred practice. Our aim is to build trusted working relationships with providers and candidates through clear communication, responsible recruitment and thoughtful matching.

Our purpose is to help providers access suitable workers while giving care professionals opportunities to contribute their experience in settings where it matters. We understand that children’s homes need staff who respect routines, safeguarding responsibilities, boundaries and the individuality of every young person.

We provide specialized staffing solutions tailored for children’s residential care and complex support settings.

We support organizations operating children’s residential homes and related residential childcare services. We do not represent ourselves as the operator or regulator of those homes. The host provider retains its own safeguarding, supervision, care planning and regulatory responsibilities.

Radian Group stands out for its commitment to safeguarding, compliance, and local expertise in care staffing.
