As a Senior Supervising Social Worker with Southwark Council, you will play a vital role in supporting foster carers and special guardians in providing life-changing care to children in need. Working within a systemic framework, you will provide group supervision and clinical support, helping carers develop the confidence and skills needed to care for children who have experienced trauma, abuse and loss.
You will work closely with colleagues across care and safeguarding teams to ensure placements are stable and permanent, always focusing on improving outcomes for Southwark's children while guiding and supporting foster carers and connected carers.
This role involves:
- Supervising and supporting a group of foster carers, assessing their needs and providing tailored training and guidance.
- Collaborating with colleagues to assess and maintain placements, striving for stability and permanence for children.
- Mentoring and coaching less experienced social workers, contributing to training programs, and enhancing the support system for special guardians and connected carers.
The ideal candidate will have experience in social work, particularly with children, foster carers and special guardians. They will be skilled in assessing placements and developing effective plans that prioritise children's long-term well-being.
We offer a competitive salary of £48,618 - £55,710, depending on experience, along with opportunities for professional growth and development. If you're passionate about improving the lives of children and families, we'd love to hear from you.
