Pay rate to £35 per hour
Contract role
We are recruiting an experienced Social Worker to work in a Families First Locality team in Trafford. You will work with our dedicated Child in Need Service on a locality basis with children and families requiring social work assessment. We have developed a specialised service to strengthen assessment and planning for children in need, raising their status and ensuring a consistent approach across the borough.
The team completes duty on a rota basis, with social workers handling a varied workload including undertaking section 47 enquiries, completing child and family assessments, and managing a caseload of children supported through child in need planning.
It is important that social workers in this service can build relational partnerships that strengthen our work, enable step-down of plans where safe, and respect families' timescales.
We welcome candidates with UASC experience, particularly those trained in conducting Age Assessments.
