Norfolk, United Kingdom Ormiston Families Part time

We have an exciting opportunity to join us as a Practitioner on Mpower Norfolk where you will provide intensive and goal-oriented support to mothers (and where appropriate their partners) with highly complex needs whose children have been removed into care.

Ormiston Families is one of the leading charities working with children, young people, and families in the East of England. We take early and preventative action to support families to be safe, healthy, and resilient. Our Mpower Norfolk supports mothers (and where appropriate their partners) whose child/ren have been removed into care within the last three years and where at least one child was aged under three years old.

Responsibilities of a Practitioner:

  • Develop highly supportive relationships with service users exercising excellent judgement on professional boundaries and the limits surrounding support.

  • Undertake collaborative and sensitive assessments of service user’s needs and strengths to agree goals and create an evidence base for your support.

  • Plan, deliver and evaluate sessions with service users in a collaborative way, through group or individual work, to achieve agreed goals.

  • Take an effective, flexible, and intensive approach to engaging with service users, recognising that their complex and traumatic histories can make service engagement difficult.

  • Empower service users to engage with a range of other services and organisations.

  • Build and maintain a strong network of professionals from a variety of providers, including statutory services, for the purpose of generating referrals and finding additional support for service users.

  • Relevant CPD, such as trauma-informed practice, working with disordered attachment, motivational interviewing, solution-focussed therapy, etc.

  • Safeguarding Core Programme or equivalent.

  • A full driving licence. You must be able to travel independently within the county and have access to your own vehicle. Transporting service users in your vehicle will be necessary.

  • Experience working in a relevant setting, e.g. social work, family work, mental health, criminal justice, etc.

  • Experience of directly supporting service users with complex needs, especially women, including domestic abuse, poor mental health, learning difficulties, histories of trauma, etc.

Benefits of a Senior Practitioner:

  • Cycle to work scheme.

  • 27 days annual leave.

  • Part-time employees receive a pro-rata allowance according to the number of hours they work per week.

  • Ability to buy or sell up to 5 days annual leave.

  • Group life assurance.

  • Pension, up to 9% employer contribution when matched by employee.

  • Sponsorship opportunities for employees who have completed their probationary period and been in post for at least 12 months to undertake nationally accredited or chartered certification awarded by professional associations.

  • Your Wellbeing - We have trained Mental Health First Aiders who form our Wellbeing Team, promoting mental and physical health.

  • Pets in the workplace - We allow our employees to have certain pets at work, as we believe that pets can foster a friendlier and happier workplace. This is provided that the conditions outlined in our Pets in the Workplace policy are met.

This post is part-time and will involve working 21 hours per week between Monday to Friday, covering 52 weeks per year.

This post will be home-based and required to work from various locations across South Norfolk.
