Children’s Social Worker, Family Support Team
Pay rate to £36.83 per hour
Contract role
Vitalis is recruiting an experienced Social Worker for a Family Support Team in Bath and Northeast Somerset Council.
This position is based in a Family Support Team focusing on child protection and court work. The role is for 30 hours per week. B&NES offers hybrid working; however, the worker must be able to undertake visits on non-office days.
Key Responsibilities:
1. Duty Week: Every 4 weeks, the team handles all referrals and assessments for the area. During this week, the successful candidate will complete Section 47 enquiries, respond to urgent referrals/visits, and conduct Child and Family Assessments.
2. Ongoing Casework: The role involves long-term work including Child in Need (CIN), Child Protection (CP), PLO, and court proceedings. Experience in CIN and CP is essential. PLO and court experience are desirable but not mandatory; support will be provided for those willing to learn.
3. Flexibility: Candidates with CIC experience are welcome, provided they are enthusiastic about transitioning into CP work and understand the differences in practice.
