An interesting opportunity has arisen to join this large and culturally diverse Secondary school in the North of Bristol.

Due to ongoing absence the school need additional capacity within the Safeguarding team and are seeking an able and dependable individual to support the current DSL on an interim basis.

As a person you'll have previous experience in the same/similar role relating to child safeguarding and be able to integrate quickly with the current team.

Key competencies sought are:
- confident in speaking with parents
- skilled at supporting children and recognising early signs for concern
- good at presentating information

- good empathy & interpersonal skills when working together with families

This role, although on and interim fixed-term contract basis, has a high probability of extension and potentially leading on to a permanent role within the school as they continually develop and adapt.

The school is part of a very large, well-run & managed and successful trust. You will be working amongst some of the most experienced & dedicated education professionals.

Elementa have supported this MAT for many years and this is a great opportunity to work with approachable and collaborative education professionals.
