Kent, United Kingdom RT Social Care Full time

AST are a specialist social work team within an Integrated Adolescent Service which includes Youth Justice, Early Help, Inclusion & Attendance and Youth Services.

The Integrated Adolescent Service recognises that adolescents should be given a bespoke offer of support. We want professionals capable of bringing understanding and emotional intelligence to everything they do. The service promotes a practice philosophywhich seeks to empower young people and their families, building on individual strengths, and helping them to develop strategies which support them to understand, manage and respond to the difficulties they face.

We offer co-working and co-location opportunities and we have excellent relationships with key partners including Housing, Education, Health and the Police.

Your role will involve providing intensive support, empowering young people and their families to develop effective long-term solutions to manage their family relationships and develop strategies to overcome the risks that adolescents face during this phaseof their life.

Where it is not safe for young people to remain living at home we will continue to work with them and their families as well as their wider network to identify suitable safe alternatives.

This role is a unique role which will provide you with experience in working across the areas of assessment, children in need, child protection, contextual harm, Court work and rehabilitation home.

Our practitioners need to be resilient and persistent; be solution-focussed; look past challenging behaviours; build positive relationships with adolescents and their carers, and to inspire young people to reach their potential.

We have opportunities for experienced Social Workers to join our teams in West Kent as a Senior Practitioner. We want a practitioner who really cares about adolescents and who understands the impact of trauma, and how to respond to contextual harm.

Vacancies available in the Adolescent social work North (Dartford and Gravesham districts) and West 2 (Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge & Malling and Sevenoaks districts)

With a degree in social work - CQSW, DipSW or equivalent - you must be BASW registered and should have substantial and varied post-qualification experiences of working with children and families.

These roles are in area teams and require you to be mobile throughout a wide operational area You should note that public transport is rarely a viable option as your role will involve you transporting people and equipment to venues in very rural areas, oftenwith limited public transport.
