Liquid PersonnelTeesside, United Kingdom · Posted 5 months agoDescription
Liquid Personnel is recruiting Social Worker for its client's Children’s Safeguarding & Care Planning Team at Teesside.
This is a rare opportunity to work within a local authority that has been recognized by Ofsted for its "unwavering commitment to children" and "exceptionally strong management oversight."

What will your responsibilities be?
- Managing a caseload of children and young people subject to Child Protection Plans and Children in Need.
- Conducting thorough, child-centred Section 47 investigations and risk assessments.

Benefits:
- National Recognition: Work for a service recently rated 'Outstanding' by Ofsted (2024), where practice is described as "consistently good across all parts of the service."
- Competitive Pay: A flat rate of £36.00 per hour.
- Work-Life Balance: Hybrid working arrangements are standard, allowing for a mix of home-based and office-based tasks.
- Supportive Environment: Benefit from a stable workforce with limited use of interim workers, ensuring better continuity for children and more peer support for you.
- Front-Door Excellence: Work alongside a "very strong front-door service" that ensures cases are triaged effectively before reaching the safeguarding teams.
Qualifications & Experience:
To be successful in this role you must have,
- Education: Degree in Social Work.
- Registration: Active registration with Social Work England.
- Experience: Minimum of 2 years post-qualifying experience in a statutory Safeguarding, Child Protection, or Assessment team.
