Children's SW - CSW Team - East Riding of Yorkshire
An experienced and committed Children’s Social Worker is required to join a busy Child in Need and Child Protection team supporting children, young people and their families across East Riding of Yorkshire. This is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference by promoting positive outcomes, safeguarding children and ensuring their voices are heard in all aspects of planning and decision-making.
You will manage a varied caseload involving assessments, child protection enquiries, children in need planning, court work and care proceedings. You will undertake thorough assessments, identify risks and strengths, and develop clear, outcome-focused plans in partnership with children, families and other professionals. The role will involve visiting children regularly, recording information accurately, preparing reports and presenting evidence at meetings and court hearings where required.
Working collaboratively with education, health, police, legal services and partner agencies, you will contribute to effective multi-agency safeguarding arrangements. You will build respectful relationships with families, undertake direct work with children and young people, and ensure that their wishes and feelings inform interventions. You will also contribute to reviews, permanence planning and the identification of suitable support and resources.
Applicants must hold a recognised Social Work qualification and be registered with Social Work England. You should have relevant post-qualification experience in children’s social care, including child protection, assessment and court-related work. Strong knowledge of safeguarding legislation, statutory guidance and social work practice is essential, together with excellent communication, assessment and report-writing skills.
You will need to work confidently both independently and as part of a team, manage competing priorities and demonstrate sound professional judgement. A commitment to anti-discriminatory practice, continuous professional development and improving outcomes for children is essential. A valid driving licence and access to suitable transport may be required for this role.
