Senior Practitioner | PASS Team | Thurrock
£35ph | The Vanguard of Early Help
Are you tired of just managing crisis? It’s time to lead the prevention.
Thurrock Council’s Prevention and Support Service (PASS) isn’t just another local authority team; it is a high-impact, multidisciplinary engine designed to keep families safe, together, and out of the statutory system. We are looking for a Senior Practitioner who doesn't just follow the "Team Around the Family" model but champions it.
The Role: Beyond Case Management
As a Senior Practitioner in Grays, you aren’t just holding a caseload; you are a clinical anchor for the service. You will bridge the gap between targeted intervention and statutory prevention.
*
Lead the Intervention: Deliver sophisticated, direct work with families facing domestic abuse, mental health challenges, and substance misuse.
*
Architect of Best Practice: Provide the high-level consultation and mentoring that elevates the practice of the entire multidisciplinary team.
*
Strategic Support: Act as the right hand to the Team Manager, stepping into leadership to ensure service continuity and safety.
*
The PASS Ecosystem: Work alongside Social Workers, Youth Workers, and Outreach Specialists in a truly integrated environment.
Are You the Right Fit?
We aren't just looking for two years of experience; we are looking for a specialist in family resilience.
*
Credentialed: Qualified Social Worker (SWE Registered) with completed ASYE.
*
Experienced: A minimum of 2 years in Children’s Services with a proven track record in high-level risk assessment.
*
A Mentor: Someone who finds professional fulfillment in upskilling less experienced staff and "deputizing" with confidence.
*
Child-Centric: A practitioner who can navigate complex parental issues (separation, trauma) while keeping the child’s voice at the absolute centre of every decision.
