Children's SW - CSW Team - East Riding of Yorkshire
An opportunity is available for a qualified Children’s Social Worker to join a dedicated Children’s Social Work team in East Riding of Yorkshire. You will work with children, young people and families to promote safety, stability and positive outcomes, undertaking purposeful assessments and delivering effective interventions in line with statutory requirements and professional standards.
Your responsibilities will include managing a varied caseload, completing assessments, developing and reviewing child-centred plans, and ensuring that children’s wishes and feelings remain central to decision-making. You will identify risks and safeguarding concerns, take appropriate action to protect children, and work collaboratively with families, schools, health professionals, police and other partner agencies.
You will contribute to child protection enquiries, strategy discussions, court proceedings and statutory reviews where required. The role also involves maintaining accurate and timely records, preparing reports, monitoring progress against agreed plans, and providing clear professional recommendations. You will be expected to promote permanence, strengthen family relationships and support children to achieve the best possible outcomes.
Applicants must hold a recognised Social Work qualification and be registered with Social Work England. Experience of working with children and families in a statutory social work setting is desirable, together with a sound understanding of relevant legislation, safeguarding procedures and contemporary social work practice. Newly qualified social workers with suitable placement experience may also be considered, depending on the requirements of the team.
You should be able to manage competing demands, work confidently under pressure and demonstrate sound professional judgement. Strong communication, assessment, analytical and report-writing skills are essential, as is the ability to build effective relationships with children, families and partner professionals. A commitment to anti-discriminatory practice, continuous learning and reflective supervision is expected. A current driving licence and access to transport may be required for this role.
