Bromley are seeking highly talented and ambitious registered Senior Practitioners to join them on their our journey to excellence.

The Safeguarding and Care Planning Service works in partnership with other agencies such as Police, Health and Education, and aims to ensure children grow up with the best life chances and receive safe and consistent care.

The Court Team is a specialist team within the Safeguarding Service. The focus of the work is with children at significant risk of harm where intervention of the court is necessary to protect them. Many of these children become looked after by the Local Authority in the interim and subsequently may not be able to return to their parents. They may be permanently cared for elsewhere by living with either extended family, long term foster care or adoption under a Court Order.

The Court Team consists of a Team Manager and 6 Senior Practitioners.

This team works in partnership with the Bromley Children's Legal Team to ensure that children's cases that are presented to court are well prepared and timely.

Knowledge/Experience

The prospective candidate needs to:

Be very well organised, have the ability to communicate effectively and articulate evidence in care proceedings.
Write reports to a high standard, that are concise, evidence based for court and adoption panel (i.e Child Permanency and Adoption Placement Reports)
Meet court timelines for submission of statements, care plans, and to effectively parallel plan for children considering all relevant options to secure permanent care at the earliest opportunity for the child.
Undertake assessments (i.e parenting and together and apart assessments), plan appropriate intervention and work creatively with children and families who are in court proceedings
Have a good understanding of safeguarding thresholds and ability to assess and analysis risks, including good knowledge of child development and attachment theories and permanency needs of children of all ages.

Work in partnership with colleagues across teams and specialisms and partner agencies to ensure that effective and timely assessments are undertaken of children's developmental needs and the needs of their families. This will include working in partnership with legal representative and Guardians within the court arena.
Undertake risk analysis/risk assessment based on informed professional judgement and use of primary evidence to evaluate the parenting capacity to make changes and ensure they can care for their children safely or whether alternative plans should be implemented.
