Children's SW - CWD Team - Surrey
We are seeking a qualified Children’s Social Worker to join a dedicated Children with Disabilities (CWD) Team. This is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference to children and young people with disabilities and their families, helping them achieve positive outcomes and access the right support at the right time. You will manage a varied caseload, complete high-quality assessments, develop effective care plans and ensure that the child’s voice, wishes and feelings remain central to all decision-making.
Your responsibilities will include undertaking child and family assessments, reviewing support packages, contributing to safeguarding enquiries and preparing reports for relevant meetings, panels and legal proceedings where required. You will work collaboratively with families, schools, health professionals, education services, care providers and other partner agencies to coordinate services and promote the child’s wellbeing, safety, development and independence. You will also support transition planning for young people moving into adulthood, identify eligible needs, monitor outcomes and ensure that interventions are proportionate, strengths-based and focused on improving quality of life.
You must hold a recognised Social Work qualification and valid professional registration, with relevant experience of working with children, young people and families. Experience in a Children with Disabilities, safeguarding, looked-after children or related statutory setting would be highly desirable. You will need strong assessment, analytical, recording and report-writing skills, along with the confidence to make sound professional decisions in complex circumstances. A commitment to relationship-based practice, equality, inclusion and continual improvement is essential. You should be organised, resilient and able to work effectively both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team. A current driving licence and the ability to travel between appointments may be required.
