East Lothian Children's Services has an exciting opportunity for a full-time, temporary position as a Family Support Worker in the Wellbeing and Justice Team. The team consists of 1 equivalent team leader, 2 senior practitioners, 3+ equivalent social workers and equivalent family support workers and has dedicated administrative support. We are part of the larger Children's Services team. The job can be very varied and we are lucky to share an office which aids communication and mutual support

The Wellbeing and Justice Team provides support to children and young people involved in different levels of offending behaviour, from Early Effective Intervention to children who have caused serious harm, as well as general Social Work support to their siblings and families. We use various interventions with children and families to support change and the development of positive and lasting networks to continue that support when SW is no longer needed. Training is very important in terms of tools and different sorts of intervention, some of which is carried out within individual and within group supervision, but East Lothian Council also runs regular and extensive training. Current Family Support Work staff deliver Early Effective Intervention programmes and Diversion from Prosecution work around areas such as drug and alcohol, offence-focused work, victim empathy, education and employment support.

The successful candidate should ideally have experience of working with young people. We are particularly keen to receive applications from workers with experience in Youth Justice interventions. We are continuing through a period of development within the youth justice service and this will bring exciting new opportunities for staff within the team.

East Lothian Children’s Services are keen to recruit workers who are passionate about achieving the best possible outcomes for children, young people and their families. We are committed to promoting an open and trusting culture at all levels of the organisation and prioritise continuous professional development and learning. Our staff are our greatest asset and we strive to be supportive, inclusive and child centred by prioritising effective supervision, manageable caseloads and a healthy work life balance. Our vision is to support children and young people to live and learn in East Lothian and our staff are involved in developing services and implementing improvement activity around this goal. We have an accessible, on site senior management team who are committed to recruiting the best people to complement the wide range of knowledge and experience that exists throughout the service
