Job Introduction
**About Together4Children**:
Together4Children combines 4 Local Authorities, Staffordshire County Council, Stoke-on-Trent City Council, Shropshire Council and Telford & Wrekin Council who have come together in an innovative and forward-thinking Partnership.

We are working together to improve outcomes for those children who enter care and are not able to return to their families of origin. We aim to ensure that our children achieve emotional, physical and legal permanence; growing up in loving homes with adults who provide them with a strong sense of security, continuity, commitment and identity.

Together4Children operates through a hub and spoke model enabling Local Authorities to benefit from core central functions and networked regional delivery, whilst retaining direct service delivery functions within their own borders. This ensures the Partnership reflects the local context, adapted to meet the needs of local children and families, and maintains clear links to local Children & Families Services.

- Make best use of our collective resources to recruit, assess and support prospective adopters and foster carers across the region.
- Improve the quality and speed of matching for children through better planning and by having a wider choice of families.
- Provide high quality support to children and their families delivered through a combination of direct provision and effective partnerships.
- Provide all children and their families with the right support at the right time through a consistent permanency support offer available across the region.
- Respond to the regulatory requirements in respect of Adoption (including Non-Agency Adoptions and Intercountry Adoption).

Main Responsibilities
You''ll provide full administrative support to our Social Work Team and be responsible for:

- Securing identified therapeutic services for children and families from approved service partners
- Payment of invoices, placing of orders and ensuring payment of accounts

With previous experience of providing administrative support you'll also have:

- Good communication skills and the ability to work with people at all levels
- Good time management skills with an ability to work under pressure to meet deadlines and on own initiative.
- Good level of IT skills using Office 365 together with the ability to advise and mentor other staff within the office on IT related issues.
- Sensitive and attentive listening skills.
- Ability to undertake a number of areas of work to ensure flexibility within the team demonstrating the ability to respond positively to changes at short notice
