Norwich, Norfolk, United Kingdom Norfolk County Council Full time

Permanent contract | 37 hours per week | £37,336 to £39,186 per annum (Grade J) | Norwich

Youth Justice Officer

Our Norfolk Youth Justice Service (YJS) is a statutory multi-agency partnership hosted within Norfolk County Council to prevent children and young people from offending whilst safeguarding their welfare, protecting the public and helping restore the damage caused to the victims of their crimes.

As a Youth Justice Officer, you will carry out a case management role in accordance with the Youth Justice Board Case Management Guidance. Your primary focus will be on the engagement, assessment, planning, delivering interventions, public protection and management of safeguarding concerns. You will undertake assessments of children, young people and their families (using YJB-approved assessment tools and other relevant assessment frameworks) to identify risks, needs and strengths to inform statutory and voluntary interventions.

Working within a multi-agency framework, you will actively promote and co-ordinate access to universal and specialist services for young people and their families and produce written and verbal reports based on assessments to inform a wide range of audiences, including courts, referral order panels and child protection conferences.

You will be expected to work flexibly, with a clear expectation of evening, weekend and bank holiday working. This includes work on a rota basis to cover weekend and bank holiday court and statutory contacts cover.

With a professional qualification in an allied service such as social work, teaching, health or a professional certificate in Effective Practice / Youth Justice, you will have significant relevant experience of designing and implementing interventions intended to change behaviours and achieve positive outcomes.

You will understand relevant criminal justice and childcare legislation and theories, including effective practice and restorative justice principles and will have managed a caseload of young people with emotional, behavioural or offending concerns.

At Norfolk County Council, we put work life balance at the forefront and offer flexible, smarter working arrangements, underpinned by leading edge technology. This is a great opportunity to join our supportive team and make a real difference to children and young people to enable positive outcomes.
