    An opportunity has arisen for a Family safeguarding Team Manager to join our dynamic Family Safeguarding teams within the West Locality in Walsall.

    As Team Manager you will be responsible for the leadership and management of a social work team ensuring that vulnerable children and their families receive responsive services that safeguard and promote their welfare.

    You will manage a team of up to 6 social workers including a senior practitioner and senior specialist social workers.

    Within the Locality you will working alongside four further team managers one in duty and assessment and three others within the family safeguarding teams.


    Family Safeguarding

    Walsall Children's Social Care have adopted the Family Safeguarding Model with support from the 'Strengthening Families, Protecting Children Programme' and investment from the Department for Education.

    This has involved creating Family Safeguarding Teams that include Social Workers, and Specialist Practitioners to support parents experiencing domestic abuse, mental health problems or drug and alcohol misuse.

    In addition, we offer a tailored programme of support and intervention, with all work being centred on Motivational Interviewing skills and more effective case recording through the workbook.

    All staff will receive training in the model and support in its implementation.

    The model has been in place for over 2 years, and we are really starting to see the difference, with Ofsted reporting that they saw exceptional practice from social workers, which helps children's experience improve and supports families to make positive improvements in their lives.

    As a result of this, our numbers of children supported by a child protection plan have reduced by half and children entering care have reduced by 30%.

    This is just one of a few new and innovative approaches we are implementing to do things differently.
