Independent Reviewing Officer
Location: Tameside
Rate: £40
Tameside is looking for an experienced Independent Reviewing Officer (IRO) to chair reviews for our Cared for Children, undertake practice impact reviews (audits), conduct IRO visits, and complete midpoint reviews.
The cared-for reviews are in person (i.e., not virtual) and typically take place at the placement.
Candidate must have prior experience as a Team Manager (children's social care) and/or as IRO.
The successful candidate will take over a caseload of approximately 60 children/young people that were previously not as well managed, so there will initially be a significant amount of arranging to organize the caseload.
Typical caseloads for IROs are around 85 at present, and the lower caseload reflects the additional organization that will be required. In due course, the allocated children will rise to be in line with the other IROs.
