    Senior Schools' Safeguarding Officer - Aylesbury, United Kingdom - Buckinghamshire Council

    Buckinghamshire Council background
    Description

    Location: Aylesbury

    Overview

    Are you passionate about the safeguarding and welfare of children? Do you have experience in training, policy formation, and providing advice and guidance on safeguarding and child protection in an educational setting? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you to join our team as an Education Safeguarding Advisory Officer.

    This is a fixed term position until April 2025.

    About us

    Buckinghamshire Council is a relatively new organisation that combines the strengths and expertise of the previous five councils in the county to create positive change for local people, communities, and businesses. We are firmly focused on the future and have made a clear commitment to serve residents better and to provide stronger representation for Buckinghamshire, both locally and nationally.

    Buckinghamshire is an ambitious, rapidly growing county, and our economy is one of the strongest in the country. It is an area of outstanding natural beauty and ranks as one of the top rural areas to live in the UK and yet it is incredibly well connected– only an hour from London on the train. The county has a rich history and heritage and is the birthplace of the international Paralympic movement.

    We are looking for motivated, ambitious and inspiring people to join us on our journey. You will be entitled to a range of different benefits to make sure you are happy both at work and at home.

    About the role

    You will be responsible for supporting schools and the local authority in safeguarding and welfare of children through training, policy formation, advice and guidance. This is an interesting and varied role, where you will have the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of children and their families. Some of the day-to-day tasks and aims of the role include:

  • Devise, develop and implement training strategies with regards to child protection and safeguarding for a variety of needs within education
  • Monitor school's performance on child protection and safeguarding matters
  • Provide advice, guidance and support to Designated Safeguarding Lead or child protection in schools and to other Education colleagues
  • Line management responsibilities for the Education Safeguarding Team, consisting of 3 direct reports.
  • For more information on the responsibilities and duties of the role, please refer to the job description.

    About you

    We are looking for someone, with significant, relevant and recent experience of safeguarding in schools and effective child protection processes, excellent communication and line management skills, the credibility to build relationships with multi-agency partners and the ability to manage workload and work on their own initiative.

    The successful candidate will have a teaching qualification or social work qualification or equivalent, and will have undertaken continual professional development and post-qualification training. The candidate will be able to demonstrate significant training and expertise relating to safeguarding in schools.

    If you are passionate about keeping children safe and well, supporting a culture of vigilance and safeguarding to be developed in schools across Buckinghamshire and are keen to make a positive difference every day, we would love to hear from you.
