Northumberland Adolescent Service is a vibrant, forward thinking, multi-disciplinary service made up of several teams specialising in meeting the needs of adolescent young people. We have gone through several changes to our Teams and have new structures and management in place to lead our workforce. We can offer supportive and pioneering practice where you can make a real difference to the lives of young people within Northumberland. With a recent Ofsted rating of Outstanding, we are proud to have created an environment where social workers can achieve the outcomes they came into the profession to do. As a service we adopt a holistic and multi-agency approach. We have positive relationships with teams across the service and with our external colleagues which allows for effective and well considered interventions that meet young people’s needs promptly and sensitively. We have a well embedded practice framework to enable meaningful family focused help. ‘Signs of Safety’ enables us to do this respectfully and in collaboration with all the families, colleagues, and organisations we are working with.
We are seeking a qualified and experienced social worker who is keen to develop a specialism in Adolescent Social Work, in particular with our Unaccompanied Asylum Seeking Children (UASC). It is fast paced, but very rewarding and you will benefit from the range of services all under one roof as well as access to training to support you to carry out this role. You will have at least 2 years frontline Social Work experience and will be able to deliver consistency, energy and passion to make a difference to young people’s lives; as we place young people at the heart of all we do and aim to provide a quality service to young people in care and care leavers to achieve the best possible outcomes for those young people, their families and carers.
If you are passionate about young people, have excellent communication, assessment and intervention skills and a commitment to high quality practice, then we would welcome you into our Adolescent Service. Northumberland is a beautiful, but very large rural county, and Northumberland Adolescent Service is a county wide service. Due to these exceptional circumstances, it is essential that you hold a full driving license.
