An exciting opportunity is available for a qualified Children’s Social Work professional to join a Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH) team in Buckinghamshire. This role would suit an experienced social worker or Assistant Team Manager with a strong understanding of safeguarding, risk assessment and effective partnership working.

You will provide timely and proportionate responses to contacts and referrals concerning children and families, ensuring that information is gathered, analysed and shared appropriately. Working alongside professionals from social care, health, education, police and other agencies, you will contribute to decisions about thresholds, statutory intervention and the most appropriate next steps for each child.

Key responsibilities will include providing professional advice, supporting the screening and prioritisation of referrals, undertaking or overseeing assessments, and ensuring that children’s welfare remains central to all decision-making. You will promote a reflective and evidence-based approach, identify risks and protective factors, and ensure that safeguarding concerns are escalated appropriately.

You will help maintain high professional standards and ensure that records, assessments and decisions are accurate, timely and compliant with statutory requirements.

Applicants must hold a recognised Social Work qualification and current Social Work England registration, with relevant experience in children’s services and safeguarding. Experience of working in a MASH, duty and assessment, referral and assessment, or front-door service is highly desirable. You will need excellent communication, analytical and organisational skills, alongside the confidence to make sound decisions in complex and sometimes high-pressure situations.

This is an excellent opportunity to contribute to effective safeguarding practice while working within a supportive, multi-disciplinary environment. A commitment to anti-discriminatory practice, partnership working and achieving positive outcomes for children and families is essential.
