Bamber Bridge, Lancashire, United Kingdom Witherslack Group Full time

Those Huge Small Victories
For children with complex, challenging needs, the level of care and education must go above and beyond. That's what drives us, here at Witherslack Group.

With our high staff-to-child ratio and in-house clinical teams, we're proud to have won a reputation for excellence and market leading OFSTED ratings.


There's a certain kind of person who can build bridges between families in challenging circumstances, the carers working with them and local authorities.

As Family Liaison Officer at Witherslack Group, your experience and passion for the role will bring about enhanced life opportunities for families all across the region.

Our aspirational homes, schools and ethos help us achieve the best possible outcomes.

Our Family Liaison Officers are a huge part of making sure our children and young people's needs are fully recognised and comprehensively met.


Get out what you put in


This is your chance to make a lasting, positive impact on the lives of families experiencing educational (and potentially other) difficulties.

Supported by a brilliant and dedicated team, you'll work closely with parents, young people, carers and the local authority to explore the circumstances and see how collaborative, effective, life-changing resolutions can be agreed and put into place.

It will also be up to you to coordinate visits to see parents, where you'll talk at length and work out strategies for coping with whatever life throws at them.

Then you'll draw on your broad knowledge of local resources to help direct them to all the additional support they might need.

Not to mention organising and taking part in admission interviews in partnership with the Head Teacher and making sure full and detailed inductions are given.


One of the best environments in SEND
From day one, Bridgeway School has been built on a principle of simply 'being there' for its pupils.

This means that every pupil's need, and every ambition was considered as the school took shape, both in terms of its physical environment and the school's ethos and vision.

The result is a truly tailored learning environment, rated Good by Ofsted, with experienced staff who are committed to providing outstanding education and support to all pupils.

We know you're going to do great things.

For your hard work and commitment, we reward you with the best salary and benefits package in the education sector.
