  • Support staff in delivering high-quality assessments, interventions, and care planning in line with statutory and local requirements.
     

  • Promote a culture of reflection, learning, and continuous professional development across the team.
     

  • Ensure that all work is underpinned by a child-centred, strengths-based approach focused on achieving the best outcomes for children and families.
     

  • Monitor and evaluate team performance, ensuring compliance with policies, procedures, and key performance indicators.
     

  • Support the Team Manager in service planning, audits, and quality assurance processes.
     

  • Contribute to case discussions, complex decision-making, and safeguarding planning to ensure robust risk management and proportionate intervention.
     

  • Foster effective partnerships with other professionals, agencies, and community networks to support holistic and coordinated service delivery.
     

  • Act as a role model for excellent social work practice and professional conduct.

Requirements

     

  • Essential qualification: Degree in Social Work (DipSW, CQSW, CSS, or equivalent).
     

  • Registration: Registered with Social Work England.
     

  • Substantial post-qualifying experience in children’s social care, including supervisory or management experience.
     

  • Strong knowledge of child protection legislation, statutory guidance, and best practice frameworks.
     

  • Excellent leadership, communication, and mentoring skills.
     

  • Proven ability to manage workload, prioritise effectively, and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
     

  • Commitment to restorative, relationship-based, and trauma-informed social work practice.
