KCC Early Help Vision is that every child and young person, from 0 to years and their family, who needs early help services will receive them in a timely and responsive way, so that they are safeguarded, their educational, social and emotional needs are met and outcomes are good, and they are able to contribute positively to their communities now and in the future, including their active engagement in learning and employment.

You will have knowledge of safeguarding and child protection and regulatory frameworks. You will work closely with a range of partner agencies, including schools.

You will need to work collaboratively to innovate and find new solutions, taking personal and professional responsibility for your actions and performance.

Occasional evening and weekend work may be required.


The ability to travel in a timely and flexible manner across the wide geographical area of the Swale District and throughout the county of Kent at various times of the day is essential.
