Social Worker required for work within the Children & Families Team in the Devon area. Competitive rates of pay up to £44ph, long term contracts in a well-managed supportive team. This contract is for roles in Totnes, with good transport links to M5 & A38, Somerset & Cornwall.
The suitable candidate will have experience of working with children and families, identifying potential child protection issues, or dealing with ongoing child protection matters. The work within the team is of a complex nature, involving either high-end children in need or child protection cases. Cases may also progress to care proceedings where appropriate, hence the need for knowledge around Court work and the statutory requirements for children who are looked after.
Applicants need to be experienced in progressing child protection / CIN plans with specific measurable and timely interventions and be able to recognize when further intervention is required to protect the children within their caseload and take the appropriate action to address this.
Candidates will have a technical authority in social care practice with acknowledged depth and expertise, including the assessment and appropriate management of risk. They will directly develop others and champion practice improvement by actively participating in process/procedure/policy and strategy development. This role may involve dealing with the most complex cases, partly in order to maintain credibility and experience in the field.
You will be Social Worker England registered, ideally a driver with access to your own car, and able to reside and work in the UK.
