Location: London

Schedule: Full-Time

Salary Range: £56,271 - £69,990

Contract Type: Permanent

Are you ready to make a significant impact in the community?

Our Children's Social Care division is in search of a passionate and committed Child Welfare Service Leader to oversee our Assessment and Intervention Service (A&I) and contribute positively to the welfare of children in the area.

Role Overview:

We are looking for an experienced, motivated, and innovative leader to elevate our dynamic A&I Service from good to exceptional.

To achieve this goal, we are well-equipped with a dedicated Clinical Service, an internal Family Group Conference Service, Parent Advocates, a Family Council, and Family Support Workers who directly assist families in ensuring the safety and well-being of children.

Furthermore, we provide a robust Quality Assurance framework with a dedicated Audit and Learning Partner, along with a quarterly event known as Learningfest to celebrate our achievements and learning.

As a Child Welfare Service Leader, you will work collaboratively with both internal and external stakeholders to deliver outstanding services to vulnerable children, young individuals, and their families. This is an excellent opportunity for a committed leader to influence social work practices positively.

Based in a central location, you will partner with the Head of Service to provide direction to your team and ensure our operational systems facilitate exemplary work with families.

Candidate Profile:

This position requires a visible leader with high standards and a results-oriented mindset, supported by strong analytical planning, comprehensive practice knowledge, and exceptional organizational abilities. You will foster a reflective, restorative, and transparent culture characterized by high support and high challenge.

You should possess experience in managing operational teams within children's social care and a sincere dedication to delivering high-quality services for children and young people. Your expertise will enable effective assessments and interventions, ensuring families receive appropriate assistance at the right time and place.

A commitment to systemic methodologies, restorative practices, and empowering practitioners to engage more with children and their families is essential. Familiarity with supporting families under child in need, child protection, and legal frameworks is crucial.

We seek a manager capable of setting objectives, formulating plans, and allocating resources to achieve demonstrably improved outcomes for families. An experienced operational manager with a history of leading teams within Children's Social Care, who is genuinely committed to providing high-quality services for children and young people, will excel in this role.

Join us in leading the charge to make a meaningful difference in the community.

Benefits:

In this position, we aim for you to feel supported, challenged, and rewarded. You will benefit from our family-friendly policies, including flexible working arrangements, home working options, and a local government pension scheme, along with various other employee benefits. You will be part of a motivated, driven, and supportive team that strives for excellence and values its members.

Our offerings include:

  • Comprehensive training and development opportunities, including bespoke coaching and mentoring.
  • Access to modern technology, including a laptop, Apple iPhone, and iPad.
  • A competitive salary range of up to £69,990, plus an additional financial benefits package.
