About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior Community Social Worker to join our Community Social Work Team. As a key member of our team, you will play a vital role in supporting our social care teams and the Early Help Partnership to ensure that vulnerable children, young people, and their families receive the best possible support.

Key Responsibilities
  • Support practitioners in understanding risk and harm, and promote clarity where the level of risk is unclear.
  • Involve with Early Help to improve outcomes for children and young people not currently open to Children's Social Care and prevent their needs from escalating unnecessarily.
  • Deliver training on different aspects of safeguarding and other relevant topics.
  • Work closely with the Community Social Work Team to develop and deliver practitioner training in partnership with the Gloucestershire Children's Safeguarding Partnership and Health professionals.
About You

We are looking for a highly motivated and experienced Social Worker who is passionate about making a difference in the lives of vulnerable children and families. You will have a recognised qualification in Social Work, be registered with Social Work England, and have passed your Assessed and Supported Year in Employment (ASYE). You will also have a full driving licence and be willing to drive.

What We Offer
  • A supportive and positive working environment with regular, robust supervision.
  • Opportunities for career development and qualification.
  • Access to our Social Work Academy.
  • A range of benefits, including flexible and agile working opportunities, 24.5 days annual leave rising to 29.5 days after 5 years continuous service (pro-rata), and an option to purchase up to 10 days of additional leave per year.
About Us

Gloucestershire County Council is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people or vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We want to be an employer of choice, attracting and retaining excellent people to work for us, so that we can best serve all of Gloucestershire's diverse communities.
