Are you an experienced social worker with a passion for court-related work? Do you have a track record of managing cases within court proceedings, from initial hearings to final resolutions, including adoption when necessary? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you.

We specialize in managing cases within care proceedings, ensuring the welfare of children is safeguarded at all stages of the legal process.

Experience: Utilize your experience in managing looked after children and those with child protection plans.

Parenting Assessment: Conduct parenting assessments, contributing to the court's understanding of family dynamics.
Home-Based Role: While this role is primarily home-based, you'll need to visit children, attend the office for duty (approximately once every two weeks), and engage in face-to-face meetings as required.

What We Offer:

Flexible Working: Enjoy the flexibility of a home-based role with occasional office and fieldwork.
Support and Development: Receive excellent management support and opportunities for skill development, including viability assessments and parenting assessments.
Protected Caseload: Benefit from a caseload designed to account for the demands of court work.

Sound knowledge of relevant legislation, policies, and procedures related to child protection, safeguarding, and looked after children.
