    About The Service

    This post is open to those seeking to return to Cardiff to work and for those seeking to work for Cardiff for the first time. There is a sense of excitement within the Children's Services workforce as Cardiff moves through its change journey with strong leadership from a dedicated management team.

    Cardiff benefits from being the capital of Wales and is one of the fastest growing cities in Britain enriched through the diversity of its people. Furthermore, Cardiff is the first city in the UK to be declared as a UNICEF Child Friendly City that places the rights of children and young people at the head of our policies and strategies . We all want to ensure that Cardiff is a city where children and young people are at its heart, where the rights of children and young people are respected by all and is a great place to grow up.

    The children of Cardiff require practitioners who can respond to the diversity of needs and experiences which in turn offers the individual the opportunity to develop expertise and to lead practice within Wales ensuring that Children and their families receive only the best. Cardiff offers the opportunity to grow and develop through high quality training, supervision and a wide variety of opportunities to pursue career development.

    Parents and families have the most significant influence on children and on their future lives. It is our belief that outcomes for children are best when they are supported to grow and achieve within their own families, this belief has been the driving force behind our 'shifting the balance of care' strategy which is and will continue to be our focus moving forward over the next years.

    Cardiff's hybrid model of working, maximising the benefits of homeworking whilst also enabling teams to come together and office space for those that are unable to work from home. The locality offices support good team morale where staff feel comfortable, can link in with colleagues, and engage with each other in peer reflection. The Operational Managers are based with the teams at the locality offices ensuring strong links between staff at all levels of the service.

    If you are interested in being part of Cardiff's journey to becoming one of the most vibrant and successful cities within the UK that puts Children first with the ambition of being a lead force behind practice development in Wales, we would be excited to hear from you.

    About the job

    The team is led by an experienced permanent Operational Manager and you will join three established team managers to complete the team. You will succeed the outgoing manager who seeks new challenges after successfully leading a team that benefits from a settled team staffed with permanent workers who deliver high performance.

    Joining the team you will offer leadership to a team of social workers and support staff and Principal Social worker. The Principal Social Worker will assist you in supervising staff and deputising. Your appointment will allow us to make the final step in our Locality model and enable us to work within school cluster areas closely aligned with the communities and other professionals that serve those communities. It is anticipated that this close network of professionals working with the community will create a virtual 'village within the city' to support all children in the community to thrive.

    Within the team's geographical area you will support children and young people through robust assessment, outcome focused care planning and effective intervention to support them in achieving positive outcomes within their families and communities. Working within a restorative practice approach, you will work in partnership with families and multi-agency colleagues in intervening to address both the presenting concerns and underlying difficulties.

    This is an exciting opportunity to join the service which puts the individual at the heart of our work. The teams work from a strengths-based approach utilising models such as Signs of Safety and Reunification Framework to guide practice and meet the needs of young people and their families.

    We have a diverse variety of casework, individual, dedicated and regular senior management support alongside progression opportunities for the successful candidates.

    What We Are Looking For From You

    The successful candidate will model the Signs of Safety approach, and will be responsible for ensuring an excellent standard of work practice exists within the teams, and to maintain and develop knowledge of research, practice developments, new initiatives and procedures and to utilise these in supervision and when planning for children.

    You will need to be a registered Social Worker, as well as significant experience in a Targeted Services environment with staff and student supervision. You will be a good team player, and have excellent communication and organisation skills.
