Role: Freelance Form F Assessor - Foster Care
Location: Home Based
Here at the National Fostering Group, we regularly recruit qualified Social Workers to carry out Foster Carers' Form F assessments. Due to recent social and economic changes, we are experiencing an increase in demand and are looking to substantially increase our intake of Freelance Form F Assessors this winter.
The Group
We are part of the National Fostering Group – the UK’s largest independent fostering family.
Our highly skilled and dedicated fostering community supports Local Authorities by providing short or long-term foster placements for thousands of vulnerable children and teenagers throughout the UK. With 100% of our 26 regional fostering agencies officially recognised by Ofsted, Welsh and Scottish regulators as either ‘Outstanding’ or ‘Good’, it is perhaps not surprising that more people choose to foster with our agencies than any other provider in the UK.
We have a National Assessment Service dedicated to ensuring our applicants get the best possible journey from application to approval. This service also ensures our assessors receive high-quality supervision, support, induction, and access to training.
The Role
The ideal candidate will be experienced in conducting Form F Assessments, self-motivated, and committed to providing excellent placements for children and young people in our care.
* Qualified Social Worker (DipSW or CQSW or equivalent)
* Current registration with the relevant Social Work regulatory council (e.g., Social Work England/Wales, NISCC, SSSC)
* Experienced in carrying out Form F Assessments
* Proven ability to work independently, to high standards, and within given time scales
* Supporting potential Foster Carers throughout their application process
