Qualified Social Work | Children in Care Team | Cambridgeshire Council
The Children in Care team work with children of all ages that are in care, carry a caseload and progress care plans for them.
They may be finding adoptive placements for them, or supporting long term fostering plans.
There will also be some complex young people in residential care, and a group that we are supporting to return home to family members.
Workers will need to have excellent skills in direct work with children and young people, and be committed to robust and timely permanence planning for all these children.
We are highly aspirational for our children in care, and would expect workers to promote good health, educational achievement and developing positive relationships as the key foundations to a successful future.
Teams consist of a Team Manager, Senior Practitioner and Social Workers.
We would welcome applications from a diverse range of workers to enhance our existing workforce, and continue the work to promote positive outcomes for young people.
To be considered, it is essential that you have a recognised Social Work qualification (Social Work Degree or Diploma in Social Work) and full Social Work England registration as well as recent or significant relevant experience in a similar role.
