Applications are invited for the above post. This post provides an exciting opportunity to join Childrens Social Care.

The main duties are to attend relevant child focused meetings and the production of comprehensive minutes in relation to meetings, which may be required by the Court etc... Given the very nature of the work of the teams, the postholder must be able to deal with highly confidential and extremely sensitive information.

The postholder will also be required to communicate with social works and professionals both face to face and via the telephone regarding such sensitive issues.

The successful candidate will be required to attend meetings both face to face and via Microsoft teams this entails direct contact with families when attending meetings. It is therefore essential that the postholder has the ability to cope with these aspects of the role.

The post holder will need to be literate and numerate with good organizational skills and interpersonal skills. The ability to take clear and concise minutes is essential, as is a Word Processing qualification to RSAII/60 wpm or equivalent.

Provisional Interview Date - Friday 9th January 2026.

If successful for an interview you will be asked to sit a 'Minute Taking Task' prior to your interview to test competency skills essential for the job.

This role is not a hybrid working role and successful candidate will be expected to work from the office full time.
