We have an exciting opportunity for Social Workers within our Assessment and Intervention Service.
You’ll manage complex cases, assess risk and plan intervention in a timely manner and, always, making sure that the children’s voices are heard and recorded consistently. We’ll also expect you to contribute to the team – helping us develop and improve standards and quality, helping us to achieve the best possible outcomes for our children and their families. You will be expected to work independently and demonstrate initiative as well as being a strong team player.
Our Children Social Care workforce is strong and growing, we have navigated the recent challenges with agility and resilience, and we are now entering our next phase of improvements. It is an exciting time to join the service as many initiatives and opportunities are being offered to staff who are committed and as passionate as we are.
You will need experience of working with children and their families to safeguard and promote their welfare. You will need experience in managing complex caseloads, be an analytical and curious practitioner who is committed to embrace our relational approach. We are looking for conscientious and compassionate people to grow our already established workforce.
We are putting the heart back into social work, supported by our relational practice model where we ensure the child’s lived experience takes centre stage.
Ours is a culture of high support, high expectations and fair challenge. We need committed individuals to support us in the delivery of these aims and to become part of our team to make a difference to our children and families.
