Guildford, United Kingdom Young Lives vs Cancer Full time

When a child or young person is diagnosed with cancer life is turned upside down - for them and their family. Fear, isolation, extreme money worries, not knowing where to turn - this is the reality for many.

At Young Lives vs Cancer, we help children, young people and families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them. You could be a part of the team making it happen.

**The Role**

We are looking an experienced Social Worker to join our London team supporting children and young people diagnosed with cancer.

This role is part home, part site-based (your contractual base will be both Home and Hospital) within the parameters of our hybrid working arrangements.

**About You**

You will be committed to delivering high quality social work support to promote the best outcomes for the children, young people and families we work with. You will need to be resourceful and resilient. You will have a positive attitude and be willing to embrace difference. As part of the wider Young Lives vs Cancer team you will actively engage with the work of the charity and welcome opportunities to get involved.

**You will have**:
A recognised Social Worker qualification and current registration with Social Work England

Experience working with children, young people and their families/carers in a social care setting.

Experience of working in a multi-disciplinary environment, ideally in an NHS setting.

Sound knowledge of child and young people development.

Excellent interpersonal skills.
