We are seeking a dedicated and experienced Senior Social Worker to join our Children with Disabilities team. The Children with Disabilities team are responsible for supporting children with disabilities and their families by assessing needs, creating tailored support plans, and coordinating services. The team works to ensure the safety, well-being, and inclusion of children with disabilities, advocating for their rights and helping them access vital resources and opportunities.

This is a permanent position with the flexibility of full-time or part-time hours.

In this role, you will provide expert guidance, support, and continuous development to your colleagues. While you’ll manage a smaller caseload to focus on mentoring, your impact will be far-reaching as you shape best practices and support the most vulnerable families.

Provide expert advice, mentoring, and technical support to colleagues, ensuring that high standards of care and practice are maintained.
Step in for the team manager when needed.
Lead on specific cases, supporting families with complex needs, using a strengths-based approach to build trust and improve outcomes.
Supervise and support the professional development of team members, driving continuous improvement.
Help shape our services through innovative practices that meet the unique needs of children with disabilities.

We are looking for an individual who is passionate about social work, and who possesses the following skills and experience. Essential Criteria:
A qualified Social Worker registered with Social Work England, driven by a passion for improving outcomes for children and their families through a strengths-based approach.
Well-versed in relevant childcare legislation, including ‘Working Together to Safeguard Children’ and fostering regulations.
Skilled at building effective, trust-based relationships with children, young people, and their families.
Committed to developing purposeful, outcome-focused relationships with families, based on mutual respect and partnership.
