Full Time
MORE THAN JUST A JOB, CHILDREN'S SOCIAL CARE AND HEALTH OFFER AN OPPORTUNITY TO GROW
Bring your skills and passion to our team and join us as an Advanced Social Worker in our Children in Care Teams within our Corporate Parenting Service.
This is a great opportunity to grow your social work career with an ambitious authority at a time of exciting change.
We've embedded our restorative practice approach across our teams and have invested in training our all practitioners and managers to build and maintain positive relationships with our children, young people and families/carers.
Working closely with your Team Manager, you will provide professional leadership and supervision to colleagues within your team, supporting your manager with the day-to-day operations of your team and contributing to an effective and efficient service to children and families.
This is a hands-on role, where you have a smaller but more complex caseload, working with children and young people with a complexity of needs (including undertaking in-depth assessments) and where, through supervision and mentoring, you will share your knowledge and experience with colleagues and students to continually improve practice standards within your team.
You will champion high standards of professional social work practice, by encouraging and supporting opportunities for reflection and learning and delivering on-the-job training, coaching, and mentoring to unqualified/alternatively qualified staff, students, and less experienced social workers.
I was able to continue doing what I love, working with families and continuing to support children in Devon whilst taking on more responsibility within in the wider context of the organisation.
The new challenge of being able to mentor, develop and support others particularly about complex safeguarding and child protection cases combined with keeping up to date with the most recent research allowed me to further grow my professional judgment and decision-making skills.
From a career progression perspective, it also gave me a great foundation in management and leadership, and I have now progressed to a Team Manager position.
Advanced Social Workers provide a lead social work role within each team, supporting the development of good evidence-based practice.
Be able to demonstrate knowledge and experience of social work mentoring, coaching, and training professional colleaguesHave evidence of substantial post-qualifying training and development
Be able to lead improvement and challenge the quality of social care practice in a constructive manner
You will also need to either be a Practice Educator or willing to undertake the relevant training at the earliest opportunity.
26 days paid annual leave per year, rising to 31 days with 5 years' continuous service, plus bank holidays.
~ Up to £2,000 retention payment per year, paid in two 6 monthly instalments for those who have been working for a period of 6 months (pro rata for part time employees).~ Ongoing learning and development opportunities through our Social Work Academy with dedicated support from our Restorative Practice Leads, as well as Research in Practice membership and full access to Devon Children and Families Safeguarding training programme.
~ Group supervisions are also offered, allowing you to learn from your colleagues and grow the strength of your social work practice together.
~ Access to our confidential Devon Wellbeing Hub and Employee Assistance Programme to support you to balance the demands of everyday life – available 24/7.
~ Flexible working opportunities, including flexitime and a degree of remote working (subject to the needs of the role - please discuss at interview).
~ Excellent Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS).
~ Links to staff networks and forums such as our LGBTQ+, BAME and Staff Diversity support networks.
~ Discounts at over 900 national and local high street retailers through our benefits platform
~ Electric Vehicle salary sacrifice scheme
~ Cycle to Work scheme
~ Free onsite parking available
~ From February 2024 ability to purchase additional annual leave
If you're looking to move to Devon, subject to qualifying conditions, we offer a generous relocation allowance. Presence in the office is vital to embed positive relationships from the outset.
This is complimented by our hybrid working model, whilst still delivering the best possible outcomes for children and young people.
