An exciting opportunity is available for an experienced and qualified social work professional to lead a safeguarding-focused children’s team in Hull. This is a management role for someone who is passionate about improving outcomes for children and young people, while supporting practitioners to deliver safe, effective and child-centred services.
As Team Manager, you will provide clear operational leadership and professional oversight to a team of social workers and support staff. You will manage workloads, allocate cases appropriately and ensure that assessments, plans and interventions are completed to a high standard and within statutory timescales. You will also take responsibility for maintaining effective safeguarding practice, promoting positive outcomes and ensuring that the voice of the child remains central to decision-making.
Your duties will include supervising and developing staff, undertaking regular case discussions, reviewing performance and addressing any practice or workload concerns. You will contribute to strategy meetings, child protection conferences, looked-after children reviews and legal planning where required. You will work closely with education, health, police and other partner agencies to coordinate services and manage risk effectively.
We are seeking a qualified social worker with substantial experience in children’s safeguarding and demonstrable experience of supervising or managing social work teams. You must hold a recognised social work qualification and current registration with Social Work England. A sound knowledge of relevant legislation, statutory guidance and child protection procedures is essential, along with the ability to make informed decisions in complex and high-pressure situations.
You will be an approachable and decisive leader with excellent communication, organisation and report-writing skills. In return, you will have the opportunity to make a meaningful difference to children and families across Hull, while working within a supportive professional environment that values learning, partnership working and continuous improvement.
