Job Description
THIS IS A RE-ADVERTISEMENT.
In June last year we appointed a new Independent Chair for both the Adult and Child Protection Committees, and this year we have introduced new learning and development roles which will work as part of a team alongside Adult and Child Protection Lead Officers.
This post offers an opportunity to develop strategic planning and self‑evaluation approaches and to provide a key link between operational services and the Adult Protection Committee. The Lead Officer will play a key role in supporting effective governance arrangements and partnership working to ensure adults are protected from harm.
The team reports through Chief Social Work Officer oversight and works closely with the Committee, adult social work services and partner agencies.
We are seeking a highly driven and enthusiastic individual who understands the value of collaboration, underpinned by trauma‑informed practice and service user voice.
We would welcome applications from suitably experienced candidates from social work, Police, health or the Third Sector.
