About the role
Do you have the skills and experience to engage and build positive trusting relationships with parents, children, and young people to inspire them to make worthwhile changes and improve life opportunities?

As Children’s Services are improving, exciting new opportunities have opened in the Safeguarding Service based in the Northampton area. We are looking to recruit a Family Support Worker to be part of the team building meaningful relationships with children and their families helping them to grow, prosper and achieve.

The role will be based in Northampton but you will be required to move effectively across the county and beyond if required.

What will you be doing?

About you
You are self-motivated and have the ability and skills to provide key pieces of direct work to children and families and to work with multi agency colleagues.

You are enthusiastic, highly motivated, with the ability to work both independently and in a team and have experience of working directly with families and children.

You are able to support with assessment-based work and have good recording skills.

You have current experience in Family Support.

About us
Northamptonshire Children’s Trust was established in November 2020 to deliver Children’s Services to the newly established North and West Northants County Councils. The Trust is wholly owned and funded but operationally independent from the Councils; this provides the organisation with unique opportunities to explore new ways of working and to be more agile and adaptable in its approach to service delivery. We are developing a culture that allows the very highest quality of professional practice to flourish and evolve, delivering at the cutting edge of new innovation.

Our benefits
We are committed to continuous improvement, building a skilled, knowledgeable, and flexible workforce alongside promoting innovation and creativity whilst keeping children, young people and families at the heart of all we do.

We really value our workforce and offer you a great benefits package including:

- 2 Day Induction Programme
