**About the role**

There is an opportunity to join Cornwall’s Statutory SEN Service in a key role as an Area Casework Officer. As a senior member of staff within this strong team you will lead by example delivering high performance within the legal frameworks and supporting and developing casework officers.

You will:

- Work in a person centred way, with a keen focus on safeguarding and outcomes.
- Establish strong positive relationships with children and young people, their families, education providers, and a broad range of professional colleagues in health and social care.

- Enjoy working collaboratively with you as our whole team continues to improve our performance.

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

Whilst the location/work-base for this role may have been specified our evolving ways of working means that the role may require you to also work remotely (e.g., from home/other locations). We will discuss this with you during the recruitment process.

We are happy to talk about flexible working options such as part-time or compressed hours. More examples of our flexible working opportunities can be found here - flexible working options.
