Children's SW - Supporting Our Children Team - Blackpool
An exciting opportunity is available for a qualified Children’s Social Worker to join a Supporting Our Children team in Blackpool. This is a rewarding role for a committed professional who is passionate about improving outcomes for children, young people and their families. You will work as part of a supportive, multi-disciplinary service focused on helping children remain safe, achieve stability and reach their full potential.
You will manage a varied caseload, completing high-quality assessments and developing effective plans that reflect the individual needs, wishes and feelings of each child. Your responsibilities will include undertaking statutory visits, preparing reports, contributing to child protection processes, attending reviews and court hearings, and maintaining accurate, timely case records. You will work closely with children, parents, carers, schools, health professionals and other partner agencies to coordinate services and promote positive change.
The role requires you to build trusting relationships, assess risk effectively and make sound, evidence-based decisions. You will advocate for children and young people, challenge appropriately when necessary, and ensure that their voices remain central to all planning. You may also contribute to permanence planning, care proceedings, placement stability and transition arrangements, depending on the needs of your caseload.
Applicants must hold a recognised Social Work qualification and be registered with Social Work England. Previous experience in children’s social care, including child protection, looked-after children or safeguarding work, is desirable. You will need strong assessment, report-writing and communication skills, alongside the ability to prioritise competing demands and work confidently both independently and within a team.
We are seeking a resilient, reflective and child-centred practitioner who is committed to continuous professional development and improving practice. In return, you can expect regular supervision, access to learning opportunities and the chance to make a meaningful difference to children and families across the local community.
