    Social Worker - Hastings, United Kingdom - East Sussex County Council

    Default job background
    Description

    'Social workers love working in East Sussex because they feel valued and supported.'
    Ofsted Report 2024

    It is a really exciting time to join our Youth Support Team (YST) in Hastings as a Social Worker due to recent changes that we have in place on how we work with families. Not to mention the excellent beach side location which our Social Workers love.

    Our brand new initiative: Connected Families intervention Practitioners (CFIP) means that our Social Workers are supported within a multi-agency team so allow the social worker to focus on direct work with children.

    We also have our Connected Coaches team who work alongside the Social Worker to assess, plan and deliver evidence-based interventions, to stabilise, reduce risk, enhance relationships and promote the care of young people within their family.

    On top of this, we have implemented another initiative that is unique to East Sussex County Council; Get Digital, which provides social workers with the skills and resources to support children and young people to build digital resilience/media literacy skills meaning they can take advantage of all the benefits of being online whilst staying safe.

    These initiatives along with the fact that our court proceedings have never been lower means that Social Workers can focus on relationship practice.

    Whether your preference is relationship based practice or you want valuable front line experience that is a great stepping stone into management our YST team in Hastings offers these opportunities.

    We are looking for candidates who are able to engage effectively using creativity, compassion and authority to overcome resistance and build relationships. Undertake assessment and analysis to a high standard on complex cases informed by research and theory and linking to child's plan and be able to promote and provide guidance and challenge on positive approaches to diversity in the organisation addressing discrimination.

    We all know that writing job applications can be challenging and time consuming, so we have streamlined the process as much as possible. The main areas we want you to tell us about are:

  • Your work with children and young people
  • How you communicate with others
  • Your application or research in theory in practice
  • Brief and to the point and with some examples is the way to go

    At Interview the main areas we'd like you to tell us about include:

  • Your work with children and young people
  • How you communicate with others
  • Your application of research or theory in practice
  • Your strong social work leadership skills
  • Interviews will take place face to face or via MS Teams, date to be confirmed.

    Our unparalleled social work education team are dedicated to supporting our social workers grow and develop within and beyond their roles.
