Are you looking for career advancement but feel held back by your current employer's need for your knowledge and skills, resulting in complex and high caseloads rather than the progression you desire?
Are you an agency worker aiming for seniority, or a permanent staff member not yet given the chance to step up? Agency work has its advantages (we understand!), and staying in a familiar role can be comfortable— but what could a change offer you?
As an Advanced Practitioner, you will play a vital role in delivering a first-class service to achieve the best outcomes for children and young people in Gloucestershire. You will be a resilient, driven individual contributing to our vision for children’s services. Managing a protected caseload, you will work to create positive outcomes for children and young people with complex needs, risks, and circumstances.
You will lead initiatives to promote and support quality control and improvement activities within the team and across the service, supporting performance enhancement.
