Children's SSW - CIN/CP/LAC Team - London Borough of Ealing
We are seeking a qualified Children’s Social Worker to join a busy team supporting children and young people across Child in Need (CIN), Child Protection (CP) and Looked After Children (LAC) services. You will work with children, families and carers to promote safety, stability and positive outcomes, ensuring that every child’s voice is heard and their needs remain central to planning and decision-making.
Your responsibilities will include completing high-quality assessments, identifying risk and protective factors, and developing clear, outcome-focused plans with families and partner agencies. You will undertake statutory visits, manage a varied caseload and contribute to child protection conferences, core groups, looked-after reviews and permanence planning. Where required, you will prepare reports for legal proceedings, attend court and make timely recommendations in line with legislation, policy and professional standards.
You will build effective relationships with children, parents, foster carers and colleagues across education, health, police and other services. The role requires confident safeguarding practice, sound professional judgement and the ability to respond appropriately to complex and changing circumstances. Accurate recording, evidence-based analysis and consistent follow-up will be essential to ensuring that plans are progressed and children remain safe.
Applicants must hold a recognised social work qualification and current registration with Social Work England. You should have relevant post-qualifying experience in children’s social care, ideally across CIN, CP or LAC practice, together with a good understanding of statutory frameworks, child development and safeguarding procedures. We are looking for someone who is resilient, organised and committed to reflective practice, with excellent communication and report-writing skills.
You will receive regular supervision, opportunities for professional development and support to maintain a healthy balance between challenging casework and personal wellbeing. If you are passionate about improving outcomes for children and can bring a thoughtful, relationship-based approach to statutory social work, we would welcome your application.
