Truro Cornwall, United Kingdom CORNWALL COUNCIL Full time €4,000

Team Manager (Multi-Agency Referral Unit)

The MARU is our Multi-Agency team who provide a response to concerns about the welfare of safety of a child or young person. The team sits alongside the Councils innovative Early Help Hub under the same leadership structure and offers a seamless and timely response to children and their families seeking help and support.

This is an exciting opportunity to further develop front door services to children and their families across Cornwall and we are looking for an enthusiastic manager who is interested in this area of work. You will be leading a skilled team of social workers, contact workers, targeted youth workers, health practitioners and housing workers. We are committed to strong partnership approaches to our work and we work closely with other partners such as the police, education, the early help workforce and children's mental health services. Several of our partners are co-located in the MARU.

Team Managers make a real difference to the lives of children in Cornwall. We believe that the children of Cornwall deserve the very best. We put their needs at the heart of everything we do, and we are looking for people who share our determination to improve their lives and make a brighter future. If you believe in humane, relationship-based social work with children and families we offer the opportunity to develop your management and leadership career in an innovative and ambitious children's service in one of the most beautiful parts of the country.

As part of our commitment to outstanding practice, we have put in place a comprehensive core curriculum and career and qualification pathway for our Team Managers to develop their knowledge and skills to deliver the most effective social work and multi-disciplinary interventions with children and families. If you are committed to continuing professional development, can demonstrate strong leadership skills, learning in your practice and in improved outcomes for the children you help and protect, we will provide you with the career options and remuneration that match your expertise.

Cornwall is one of the best places in the country to live, work and bring up a family. We are committed to supporting the wellbeing of our staff and we recognise that they need a good work/life balance as well as supportive leadership and support in the workplace. Cornwall's location and landscape offers unique opportunities for a healthier, happier way of life.

This is a public/customer-facing role, where the statutory English language requirement for public sector workers applies.

This position will be subject to an enhanced criminal record disclosure check.

You will need to be qualified with a social work degree, social work qualification (Dip.SW; BA Social Work) or equivalent, and will need to be Social Work England registered.

You will need to be a Registered Social Worker with Social Work England, with substantial experience in statutory social work with children and families. You will be able to evidence how you have applied your learning to your practice and have a track record of practice that improves the lives of children. You will have evidence of post qualifying learning in child and family social work to demonstrate your specialism as a Child and Family Social Worker, preferably at Masters level or equivalent. You will have significant experience of evidence-based practice with children and families and the expertise and approach to effectively supervise and manage social workers and other social care practitioners. You will be working alongside Advanced Practitioners within your teams supporting practice, learning and development of our Social Workers and social care professionals.

What you'll get in return:

In recognition of the vital contribution you make, we offer an attractive package of benefits including:

  • A competitive starting salary.
  • A generous relocation package
  • Welcome bonus of GBP4000 for qualified Social Workers who are new to social work in Cornwall and have completed their ASYE
  • Annual market supplement of GBP3000 for advanced practitioners
  • An individualised induction to meet your specific needs and learning
  • An outstanding core curriculum to support your ongoing development with a high-quality programme of evidence-based learning and development to enhance skills and practice.
  • An outstanding career and qualification pathway, which will support your progression.
  • Regular, high-quality case and reflective supervision
  • Supportive management and leadership
  • Support to access temporary accommodation if moving from outside of Cornwall
  • Access to a Cornwall Council lease car
  • 26 days paid annual leave per year (rising with length of service), plus bank holidays
  • Flexible working opportunities, including homeworking
  • A license to access Community Care Inform and Research in Practice.
  • Payment of your Social Work England registration fees.

Fairness and inclusion are at the heart of our vision for Cornwall. In order to best serve our communities, we are striving to achieve a diverse workforce that is inclusive of all backgrounds, cultures and identities; e.g., race, disability, sex, gender, age, religion and sexual orientation. We are an equal opportunities and Disability Confident employer, and we will assess applicants on their merits.

Cornwall Council is committed to safeguarding and following safer recruitment principles to help make sure our staff and volunteers are suitable to work with children, young people and adults at risk. It's a vital part of creating a safe and positive environment and making a commitment to keeping all service users safe from harm.
