Duty Social Worker
7 days ago
With our new operating model, we’re making sure our social workers can do what they do best
We have opportunities for a Duty Social Worker on a full-time basis but we're also happy to discuss part time as well, just get in touch.
Our Social Workers make a huge difference to the lives of people across our county. They take pride in supporting children and families and we’re equally proud to help them give their best in whatever ways we can. That’s why you can expect everything from agile and flexible working options to exceptional learning and development if you join our team. You can also expect our commitment to creating the best service we can.
Although we’re already rated as ‘Good’ by OFSTED, we’re determined to uphold the highest standards and drive continual improvement and learning. That’s why we’ve recently gone through an exciting transformation, underpinned by a restorative practice model, which focuses on keeping families together through a community-based approach. If you’ve not worked in this way before, don’t worry - we’ll give you full training to bring you up to speed.
Working with us means collaborating across our different teams, and sharing best practice, knowledge, and experience to continually improve the way we do things. Support is important, as we work in a big county with some diverse challenges - but together we can meet all kinds of needs and demands.
As a Duty Hub Social Worker, you’ll work within a busy Duty team, completing Initial Visits and Child Social Work Assessments following new referrals from our Staffordshire Childrens Advice and Support Service. The work will be varied, covering S.47 investigations, S.17 Child Social Work Assessments. Applicants for these posts will need to have completed their ASYE Year. We’ll ensure you gain experience and training to conduct ‘Achieving Best Evidence Interviews’.
You’ll need to be a:
Qualified Social Worker, with at least 2 year's experience having completed your ASYE year
Registered with Social Work England
Have a current UK driving licence and vehicle
But above all, you’ll bring the desire to work with children and families to give them the right support, at the right time with the aim of keeping families together where it’s safe to do so.
