About the Role

We are seeking an enthusiastic Advanced Social Worker to join our Through Care service, working with looked-after children and care leavers from 12-25. This specialist role is part of a targeted reunification programme aimed at rehabilitating children from the care system to live successfully back with their parent(s).

As an Advanced Social Worker, you will hold a small caseload of looked-after children who have been identified as requiring support to return to their parents' full-time care. You will work closely with therapeutic practitioners and reunification workers to develop robust and bespoke plans, with targeted intervention, to achieve successful rehabilitation.

This role offers the opportunity to form meaningful relationships with children and their families, understanding and assessing their needs to develop effective plans and interventions.

The ideal candidate will have a sound knowledge of legislation and regulations surrounding looked-after children, with the ability to apply this to their practice. Court work and managing adolescent risk are also key aspects of this role.

A competitive salary of £38,690 - £41,766 per annum (dependent on experience) reflects the challenging yet rewarding nature of this position.
