    Read Ofsted's Inspection of Norfolk Children's Services November 2022 report

    Personal advisers and social workers have caseloads which 'enable them to build enduring and effective relationships with their young people and support them into adulthood'.

    Working in Norfolk you will be empowered to be tenacious and creative in using a range of tools and theoretical frameworks to help children through significant and traumatic experiences.

    Relationship-based partnership working is one of our strengths in Norfolk with an innovative system-wide approach to the delivery of services and a diverse range of multi-agency support services focused on building resilience and ensuring that needs are met quickly and at the lowest level.

    Our executive director of children's services (DCS) Sara Tough is an exemplary leader who champions the needs of children and young people with a strong senior management team who together provide continuity of management and strategic direction.

    In Norfolk we've invested millions to completely change our operating model and create the professional and emotional support around you that you need to do the job you trained for, to get the best outcomes for children and families, and to achieve a work-life balance that suits you.

    We're realistic about the challenges, but we're passionate about how we can support you to meet them, so you can enjoy the rewards social work has to offer.

    Two members of support staff for every social work team to reduce your admin
    Continuous development of the professionals that you as a case-holding social worker can call in to help you, including domestic abuse specialists, homebased support workers, substance misuse workers
    A Children's Advice and Duty Service (CADS) team to triage cases to the right teams, so you can focus on where you can make the biggest difference

    We have already seen reduced contacts, referrals, and a big reduction in the number of assessments which do not lead to ongoing work.

    "The FAST model means that you are able to work with children from the point of referral onward meaning you have the opportunity to work long term with families and form strong and consistent relationships with the children you work with. There is a good variety of work between assessment, long-term work and court work and as such you have the opportunity to develop your skills in a range of areas.

    " In addition to being a social worker registered with Social Work England, you will:

    Previous experience working within a children's social care environment (we have a supported programme if you have had a career break or have worked in a different sector).

    A proven track record of excellent practice and a passion for improving the lives of children
    A supportive team who cares about your wellbeing and professional development
    We offer flexible working arrangements including condensed four-day week working, hybrid working, nine-day fortnights and other options
    We offer a generous annual leave entitlement - plus the opportunity to purchase up to two weeks of additional annual leave through our salary sacrifice scheme
    We offer maternity, paternity and adoption pay and time off to support you as your family grows. There is an independently run nursery within the Norfolk County Council grounds which offers priority spaces to our employees
    We offer support if you care for relatives or friends who are older, disabled or seriously ill
    We are committed to promoting the health, safety and wellbeing of our social workers. We provide access to services that support your health and wellbeing, such as confidential counselling and advice, fast-track physiotherapy and NHS Health Checks for employees over 40

    We have a great offer waiting for you, not to mention a great lifestyle in Norfolk to help you with your work life balance.

    All our office-based roles are currently working in a hybrid way between home and office as part of our Smarter Working plans and to support the health and safety of all our colleagues.

    We anticipate that working remotely will be a key feature of this role and your office base will be in Sprowston, Norwich.
