Children's SP - MASH Team - Luton

Luton, England, United Kingdom Temporary Children and families

Reference: 670438

An opportunity is available for a qualified children’s social worker to join a Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH) team in Luton. This is a fast-paced role focused on responding to safeguarding concerns, assessing risk and ensuring that children and families receive the right support at the right time.

You will screen and assess referrals from professionals, families and members of the public, gathering relevant information from partner agencies including education, health, police and other services. You will analyse information, identify risks and protective factors, and make clear, evidence-based recommendations about the most appropriate response. This may include signposting to early help, arranging further assessment or progressing cases in line with safeguarding procedures.

The role involves completing timely and proportionate assessments, contributing to strategy discussions and making sound decisions in situations that may be complex or high risk. You will maintain accurate, detailed and confidential case records, prepare reports, participate in meetings and communicate effectively with children, parents, carers and professionals. You will also contribute to improving practice, sharing information appropriately and promoting positive outcomes for children.

Applicants must hold a recognised Social Work qualification and be registered with Social Work England. Recent experience in children’s social care, safeguarding, assessment or a MASH setting is essential, together with a sound understanding of relevant legislation, statutory guidance and child protection procedures. You should be confident managing competing priorities, working under pressure and exercising professional judgement while maintaining a child-centred approach.

Strong written and verbal communication skills are required, alongside the ability to work collaboratively within a multi-agency environment. The successful candidate will demonstrate resilience, professional curiosity, sound analytical ability and a commitment to anti-discriminatory practice. A current enhanced DBS clearance, or willingness to obtain one, will be required. The role may involve flexible working arrangements and participation in relevant meetings outside standard office hours.
