Leaders in Care is currently seeking a Children Looked After (CLA) social worker to temporarily cover one post within a local authority in Merseyside – commutable from the Cheshire & Wirral area for those with dual social registrations.
Despite being a small team, they have a strong reputation for stability, supported by long-standing management. Support is available for long-distance placements however most placements are close to County.
Working from home is encouraged and those who enjoy managing their own time and diary will be encouraged to do so with managers entrusting in their social workers to chase best outcomes for their children.
A little about the team – CLA social workers primarily handle caseloads post-proceedings, with a focus on long-term placements. Occasionally, cases involving Section 20 or reunification may arise, typically managed by a separate court team.
As this is a statutory role, a social work qualification and registration with Social Care England are required.

If this role isn't for you, but you know a friend or colleague looking for a change, we are offering a market-leading referral fee of £500 per placement. Just reach out!
