    Description

    Social Worker - Children In Care - Court Team

    Social Worker - Children In Care - Court Team

    About the Role

    Our focus is to raise the profile of Children's Services at Northamptonshire and improve the quality of our services in court so that we can provide the very best outcomes for our children, families and carers.

    Our social workers are supported by experienced Team Managers, Family Support Workers and Business Support Administrators. Our new Consultant Practitioner roles are dedicated to supporting and coaching social workers with complex cases and providing valuable coaching and training.

    Children in Care have 11 teams in total based across the county. We currently have vacancies for social workers specialising in court work in Kettering and Northampton.

    What will you be doing?

    Our children in care service provides oversight for all the children in care in Northamptonshire. This includes children subject to legal proceedings as well as children with a plan to remain long term in our care.

    We focus on building meaningful relationships with young people, their families and their carers to ensure that we plan effectively for the future of every child.

    The service has 11 teams that work across the county and focus on particular cohorts of children.

    You will need to be experienced at court work and will be confident and capable enough to attend court on your own if necessary.

    About You

    It will be important to you to make a personal contribution towards improving our service.

    You will be passionate about supporting and advocating for young people to ensure they reach their goals and have the best possible futures.

    Experience of working in adoption teams isn't necessary but you will need to demonstrate that you have at least one years' experience of court work. Your experience could have been gained whilst working in a court team, attending court whilst working in a safeguarding service or another area of children's services.

    Our Benefits

    We are committed to continuous improvement, building a skilled, knowledgeable, and flexible workforce alongside promoting innovation and creativity whilst keeping children, young people and families at the heart of all we do.

    We really value our workforce and offer you a great benefits package including:

    • Highly competitive salaries
    • Retention bonus
    • Social Work England registration costs
    • Flexible working practices, including home working, flexi time and job share
    • The opportunity to personally contribute to improving the service
    • Monthly high quality supervision
    • Up to 27 day's annual leave plus bank holidays (with service rises to 32 days plus bank holidays)
    • Opportunity to buy back up to 5 weeks of additional holiday each year
    • Subsidised local authority Pension Scheme
    • Additional 12 weeks of maternity leave at 50%
    • Up to £8,000 relocation allowance
    • Signs of Safety training
    • An onsite academy delivering a variety of learning & development opportunities
    • Heavily subsidised city centre parking
    • Regular engagement opportunities with the CEO

    About Us

    Northamptonshire Children's Trust was established in November 2020 to deliver Children's Services to the newly established North and West Northants County Councils. The Trust is wholly owned and funded but operationally independent from the Councils; this provides the organisation with unique opportunities to explore new ways of working and to be more agile and adaptable in its approach to service delivery. We are developing a culture that allows the very highest quality of professional practice to flourish and evolve, delivering at the cutting edge of new innovation.

    We regret that we are not accepting any overseas applications at this time.
