Children's SW - CSW Team - Redbridge
An experienced Children’s Social Worker is required to join a dedicated Children’s Social Work team. This is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference to children, young people and their families by providing high-quality, relationship-based support and ensuring that children’s welfare remains at the centre of all professional decisions.
You will manage a varied caseload involving children and families with complex needs, undertaking assessments, preparing plans and reviewing progress in line with statutory requirements. Responsibilities will include safeguarding children, responding to concerns, completing assessments, carrying out direct work, attending child protection meetings and contributing to care planning and legal proceedings where necessary. You will work collaboratively with families, schools, health professionals, police and other partner agencies to promote positive outcomes and improve children’s safety and wellbeing.
The successful candidate will maintain accurate, timely case records and demonstrate sound professional judgement when assessing risk and need. You will be expected to participate in supervision, reflect on practice and contribute positively to team development. A commitment to anti-discriminatory practice, partnership working and the participation of children and families is essential.
You must hold a recognised Social Work qualification and be registered with Social Work England. Previous experience in children’s social care is essential, including knowledge of relevant legislation, statutory guidance and safeguarding procedures. You should have strong assessment, communication and report-writing skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and work effectively under pressure.
The role requires an adaptable, resilient and child-focused professional who can build trusting relationships and make balanced, evidence-based decisions. A current enhanced DBS clearance, satisfactory references and the right to work in the UK will be required. The successful applicant will benefit from professional supervision, opportunities for development and a supportive team environment.
