Children's SSW - Multi-Disciplinary Team - Redbridge

Reference: 670433

An exciting opportunity is available for a qualified Children’s Social Worker to join a supportive multi-disciplinary team. This role is suited to an experienced practitioner who is committed to improving outcomes for children, young people and their families, and who can work confidently across professional boundaries.

You will manage a varied caseload involving children and young people who may require assessment, safeguarding intervention, care planning and ongoing support. Your responsibilities will include completing high-quality assessments, developing and reviewing child-centred plans, undertaking statutory visits, contributing to strategy discussions and preparing clear reports for meetings and court proceedings where required.

Working collaboratively with colleagues from education, health, early help, youth justice and other partner services, you will promote effective information sharing and coordinated support. You will build positive relationships with children and families, ensuring their views are heard and reflected in decision-making. The role also involves identifying risk, responding appropriately to safeguarding concerns and maintaining accurate, timely records in line with relevant legislation, policies and professional standards.

Applicants must hold a recognised social work qualification and current registration with Social Work England. Previous experience within children’s social care, including child protection, looked-after children or family support services, is essential. You should have a sound understanding of safeguarding legislation, statutory guidance and strengths-based practice, together with the ability to assess complex situations and make balanced, evidence-based decisions.

You will need excellent communication, organisation and report-writing skills, as well as the resilience to manage competing priorities in a demanding environment. A commitment to anti-discriminatory practice, participation and improving outcomes for vulnerable children is essential. The ability to work flexibly as part of a multi-disciplinary team, while also managing responsibilities independently, will be highly valued.
