Cardiff, United Kingdom Cardiff Council Full time

**About The Service**
Are you interested in a career in social work?

Becoming a social work assistant offers a great opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of children, young people and families.

Cardiff Council are recruiting for an exciting new role within our Interventions Hub. We need a social work assistant to help deliver a project that supports teams across children’s services when working with cases where domestic violence is present.

Cardiff Children’s Services offer a range of opportunities for career development, including funded secondments to various degree and post graduate training courses.

Cardiff offers the opportunity to grow and develop through high quality training, regular and effective supervision, and a wide variety of opportunities to pursue career development, for example we have funded Social Work Assistants to go to university to obtain their Social Work qualification.

Cardiff is one of the fastest growing cities in Britain and is the first city in the UK to be declared as a UNICEF Child Friendly City that places the rights of children and young people at the head of our policies and strategies.

Parents have the most significant influence on children and on their future lives. It is our belief that outcomes for children are best when they are supported to grow and achieve within their own families. This belief has driven the ‘Think Family’ approach which looks at the family as a whole and co-ordinates support across the public services, tailored to each family’s needs and strengths.

If you are interested in being part of Cardiff’s journey to becoming one of the most vibrant and successful cities within the UK that puts children first, with the ambition of being a lead force behind practice development in Wales, we would be excited to hear from you.

Come join us and be part of a newly established team who focus on early help and prevention. The Interventions Hub is essential in helping families get the right help at the right time. That’s why we are developing our early intervention and prevention services to make sure families can access a range of services and tiered support to prevent the need for statutory social work intervention.

Cardiff is frequently found at the top of lists of best cities in the UK to live in so come join us and see what we can offer.
- A generous annual leave entitlement starting at 28 days per year to a maximum of 33 days per year after 5 years, with the option to purchase additional annual leave to a maximum of 10 days.
- Our working culture is flexible, with a flexi scheme allowing you to work to a schedule that suits you.
- Hybrid working - supporting you to flexibly deliver your role whether on visits, from an office or your home.
- Access to the Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan Pension Fund which is part of the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS), offering a reputable, secure and flexible pension plan for peace of mind.
