Children's SW - CSW Team - Redbridge
We are seeking a qualified Children’s Social Worker to join a dedicated children and families team. This is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference to children and young people by providing high-quality social work support, promoting their welfare and ensuring their voices remain central to all decisions.
You will manage a varied caseload involving children in need, child protection, children looked after and care leavers. Your responsibilities will include completing robust assessments, developing and reviewing plans, undertaking statutory visits, preparing reports and presenting information at meetings, reviews and court hearings. You will work collaboratively with children, families, foster carers, schools, health professionals and other partner agencies to achieve positive outcomes and promote stability.
The successful candidate will build effective, respectful relationships with children and families, identify risks and strengths, and use professional judgement to make sound, evidence-based decisions. You will be expected to maintain accurate case records, meet statutory and departmental timescales, contribute to safeguarding procedures and ensure that practice reflects relevant legislation, guidance and best-practice standards.
You must hold a recognised Social Work qualification and current registration with Social Work England. Experience in children’s social care, including child protection, looked-after children or court work, is desirable. We are looking for someone who can manage competing priorities, communicate clearly and confidently, and demonstrate a child-centred, strengths-based approach.
You will receive regular supervision, opportunities for professional development and support from experienced managers and colleagues. Applicants should be committed to anti-discriminatory practice, reflective learning and continuous improvement. The role may require travel to visit children and families, attendance at meetings and flexibility to respond to changing safeguarding needs.
