- Managing complex multi-agency work, negotiating with partner agencies using robust legal knowledge.
What we’re looking for:
- Social Work qualification and registered with Social Work England (SWE).
- Extensive experience managing complex cases, supervising others, and acting as a senior decision maker.
- Leadership skills to influence, motivate, and manage others.
- Strong knowledge of local and national safeguarding policies and procedures.
- Excellent problem-solving and risk assessment skills.
- Strong communication and relationship management skills.
- Great organisational skills and resilience in adapting to changing priorities.
- Commitment to demonstrating our values and behaviours, showing compassion, empathy, and respect.
