Key Responsibilities
In this role, you will manage a structured caseload of clients, maintaining consistent engagement while delivering high-quality, outcome-focused support. You will provide tailored interventions based on individual needs, balancing empathy with a clear focus on progress and accountability. A core part of the role involves maintaining accurate, timely, and detailed case records, using digital systems effectively to support safe and consistent care. A strong understanding of safeguarding is essential, including the ability to confidently identify, assess, and respond to risk. You will work collaboratively with external agencies and partner organisations, contributing to a coordinated and professional approach.

In these cases, you will be expected to undertake home or hospital visits to ensure continuity of care and engagement.
