The Children's Safeguarding & Support teams are based across Herefordshire as we move to a locality-based model. Teams will be located in the North, South and Central areas of the county with good transport links to get around the City as needed. The staff are very welcoming and are always keen to offer help and guidance if needed to anyone new to the team.
There are six teams which are made up of a Team Manager and five social workers each. The locality base for this post is Leominster, with flexibility for working at home within a plan agreed as part of your appointment to the post, however you will be expected to attend some meetings in person and attend the office as agreed each week.
We work alongside families in improving outcomes for their children, we have a restorative approach to social work and this is also evident in the team culture and senior management style as we are available for discussions on complex matters, working together to ensure the right outcomes are achieved for our families
Social Workers work closely with the Council's Legal Team to complete Court applications, which can be a learning experience for Social Workers but plenty of support is available to help when needed. We have Case Progression Officers who support the teams in ensuring we meet court timescales and contribute to identifying training that may be required to ensure that our staff feel equipped & supported.
Regular supervision takes place each month and you will have supervision with a Service Manager, who is available on a daily basis, for both formal and informal supervision sessions and case discussions.
