The job itself
Are you a qualified Social Worker looking for a role with a good work-life balance and real progression opportunities? Social Worker careers in East Riding of Yorkshire Council Children's Social Care could be exactly what you're looking for.
We are seeking 3 experienced social workers to be based within the Bridlington Strengthening and Supporting Families team on a 12-month fixed-term contract. Two posts are to cover maternity leave, and one to cover a 12-month career break. We will consider ASYE's coming to the end of their first year in practice.
Bridlington is a rural coastal area of East Riding and is a beautiful area to travel around. We cover a large area stretching from the York Border across the northern aspect of the county, including many rural and isolated locations.
We are a large team with three managers, where there is a wealth of experience and knowledge, but also staff at the beginning of their social work pathway, eager to learn and develop good practice.
Our office base is shared with multi-agency partners, providing good opportunities for joint working. It is a purpose-built family centre that is a pleasant location to work, with free on-site parking.
We are seeking social workers who can work as part of a team, support colleagues, and have experience working with families and young people, including those not living at home with a parent. Our service delivers interventions to children, young people, and their families under Child in Need Plans, Child Protection Plans, and through Care Proceedings, Private Law Proceedings, and Adoption.
All our interventions are based upon the Signs of Safety Model, which underpins all our work and recording.
