North East, United Kingdom Durham County Council Full time

In our latest inspection (May 2022), OFSTED acknowledged the OUTSTANDING work of the pre-birth team, and we consistently receive positive feedback from the Courts and Cafcass.

Our pre-birth model aims to enable babies to remain with their parents, or at least within the birth family, where it is safe to do so.

As a dedicated and nurturing pre-birth social worker, you will provide intensive support to parents to achieve sustainable change, enabling them to safely care for their child from birth. Where this is not in the child's best interest, you will work to find a permanent home for the child as early as possible. Comprehensive and high-quality assessments will also be ensured.

We are committed to social work excellence in County Durham, providing a culture where good practice can thrive. Durham is proud to be recognised as a 'Supportive Employer of the Year', at the Social Work Awards 2022.

Key requirements include:

  • A degree in social work or equivalent social work qualification, and a current Social Work England Registration
  • Successful completion of the Assessed and Supported Year in Employment (ASYE)
  • Experience of building effective relationships with children, young people, and families
  • Experience in producing focused written case notes and reports
  • Knowledge of social work theories relevant to the role
  • Commitment, enthusiasm, and professional confidence

Please refer to the attached person specification for the full criteria.
