Children's SW - CWD Team - Harrow
We are seeking a qualified Children’s Social Worker to join a Children with Disabilities (CWD) team. This is an opportunity to support children and young people with disabilities, along with their families and carers, through high-quality, strengths-based social work practice. You will manage a varied caseload and contribute to improved outcomes, safeguarding and long-term wellbeing.
You will undertake assessments, develop and review child-centred plans, and ensure that the voice, wishes and feelings of each child are central to decision-making. Your responsibilities will include responding to safeguarding concerns, completing statutory visits, preparing reports, participating in reviews and managing cases in accordance with relevant legislation, policies and professional standards.
Working collaboratively, you will liaise with families, schools, health professionals, education services, commissioned providers and other partner agencies. You will help families access appropriate support, assess care and support needs, coordinate packages of assistance and contribute to transition planning as young people move towards adulthood. You may also be required to contribute to court work, attend multi-agency meetings and provide clear, accurate records within required timescales.
The successful candidate will hold a recognised social work qualification and current registration with Social Work England. You will have experience of working with children and families, ideally within a Children with Disabilities service or a related statutory setting. A sound understanding of safeguarding, assessment frameworks, relevant legislation and person-centred practice is essential.
You will be an effective communicator with strong assessment, analytical and written skills. The ability to manage competing priorities, work autonomously and contribute positively within a multidisciplinary team is important. You must demonstrate commitment to anti-discriminatory practice, inclusion and improving outcomes for children and young people with disabilities.
This role offers the opportunity to make a meaningful difference while developing your professional practice within a supportive and collaborative environment. A valid driving licence and ability to travel for visits and meetings may be required.
