The Team works with 16/17 year old unaccompanied young people and also a number of 16/17 year old young people looked after in supported accommodation who are not UAS. We have added capacity and you will be joining a team of experienced social workers and support staff. You must be a QSW with a good understanding of statutory duties in respect of children looked after transitioning to adulthood, and experience of working with UASCs if at all possible, although some training can be provided for an experienced QSW.
Advanced SW rate available for an experienced worker & assignment will be for 6 months initially whilst we recruit to permanent posts.
