Children's ATM - MASH Team - Buckinghamshire
An exciting opportunity is available for a qualified social work professional to join a busy Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH) team within children’s services. This role would suit an experienced social worker or assistant team manager with a strong understanding of safeguarding, early intervention and statutory children’s social care.
You will support the effective screening, research and assessment of referrals concerning children and families, ensuring that information from partner agencies is gathered, analysed and acted upon promptly. You will contribute to decisions about thresholds, risk and the most appropriate next steps, including signposting, early help, child in need assessments and child protection responses.
Key responsibilities will include providing professional advice to colleagues and partner agencies, supporting the allocation and prioritisation of work, and promoting effective information-sharing across health, education, police and other services. You will help ensure that children’s voices, experiences and welfare remain central to decision-making, particularly where there are concerns about neglect, abuse, exploitation or domestic abuse.
The postholder will contribute to the quality assurance and development of MASH practice, support reflective supervision and help maintain high standards of recording, analysis and case management. You may also assist with managing workflow, responding to urgent safeguarding matters and deputising for senior colleagues when required.
You must hold a recognised social work qualification and be registered with Social Work England. Significant experience of working with children and families in a statutory safeguarding setting is essential, together with a sound knowledge of relevant legislation, guidance and assessment frameworks. We are looking for someone who can demonstrate strong professional judgement, clear written and verbal communication, resilience and the ability to work confidently in a fast-paced, multi-agency environment.
In return, you will have the opportunity to make a meaningful difference to children and families while developing your leadership and safeguarding expertise within a supportive, collaborative service.
