Description
Job Description
Senior Social Care Officer, COPE Team - PKC
£34, - £37,

O – Open cases to Social Work and need
P – Planned intervention during
E – Evenings and weekends
COPE provides planned input and support to children, young people and families who are working with our service. In line with 'The Promise' we have listened to children, young people and families' requests for support to be available to them at times when they need it.
This post is for a COPE member of staff to work during the evenings and weekends.
COPE staff work closely with the Lead Professional to undertake directed pieces of planned work which may include providing parenting support for families, spending individual time with a child or young person and completion of any other suitable tasks identified within their Child or Young Person's Plan.
Alongside planned pieces of work, COPE workers respond to the urgent needs of children, young people and families as required in conjunction with our Out of Hours Service. A shift system will be in place to cover evenings and every second weekend and these will be the primary working hours. A typical shift could be 13:30 - 22:00hrs during the week and 11:00 - 21:00hrs at the weekend, however the worker will be required to be flexible.
Staff may also be required to attend Children's Hearings, Child Protection and Child/Young Person's Plan meetings.

You must be flexible in your approach and able to think quickly and on your feet in situations.
You must be able to demonstrate a positive attendance record at work and high levels of reliability and punctuality.
Relationship-based practice is key to positive interventions with children, young people and families and it is important that you have the skills and qualities to provide nurturing support whilst being able to be honest and transparent with families about risks and concerns. Having a strengths based approach will be beneficial so that you are able to help families identify their strengths and how to build on them. It would be helpful if you have experience of undertaking home visits and working with children, young people and families in their own communities.
You should be familiar with Getting it Right for Every Child and the My World Triangle and SHANARRI indicators. Children, young people and families may be experiencing multiple adversities such as poverty, addiction, domestic abuse and mental health issues and therefore being able to work collaboratively with other agencies is essential.
