Bridgend Bridgend, United Kingdom BRIDGEND COUNTY BOROUGH COUNCIL Full time

Are you passionate about improving the lives of children and young people? Do you want to work for an employer who places major importance on high quality supervision, wellbeing, and career development?
Bridgend County Borough Council offer great opportunities to further your social work career. We want Social Workers to join us to assess and support the children and families across the county borough.
We have recently completed a restructure to provide an even wider range of pathways for children who are care experienced. We are currently recruiting for Senior Social Workers who will be based within our Locality Teams.
Our Locality Teams are based within three community hubs around the county borough. Our targeted Family Support Services are co-located with our Locality Teams to provide a continuum of services ranging from early help to intensive provision to families with complex needs. We also have teams who offer expertise in relation to children with disabilities and young people aged 16 and over who are entitled to leaving care services.
Our MASH (Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub) went live in April 2018. This service incorporates both the requirements of the Social Services & Well Being (Wales) Act 2014 alongside safeguarding our most vulnerable children and adults.
In 2020 Children's Social Care launched the outcome focused approach social work model which underpins all our practice in Bridgend County Borough. We are currently rolling out training for Signs of safety approach. All new staff will be provided with a suite of training that will support them to develop their practice in line with the principles of the model.
We are a reflective organisation that continuously builds on its strengths and is committed to the principle that the most effective way of improving outcomes for all children, young people and families is through the provision of accessible, universal services.
Protecting children, young people or adults at risk is a core responsibility of all council employees.
A valid driving licence is requirement for this post.
