Children's TM - CSW Team - East Riding of Yorkshire
An experienced and committed Children’s Team Manager is required to lead a Children’s Social Work team in East Riding of Yorkshire. This is an opportunity to provide strong professional leadership, support high-quality practice and help achieve positive outcomes for children, young people and their families.
You will manage, motivate and develop a team of qualified social workers and support staff, ensuring that work is allocated appropriately and completed to a consistently high standard. You will provide regular supervision, reflective practice and case consultation, while monitoring performance, workload and professional development. A key part of the role will be promoting a child-centred approach and ensuring that children’s voices, wishes and feelings remain central to decision-making.
The successful candidate will oversee statutory safeguarding and social care work, ensuring that assessments, plans, reviews and interventions are completed within required timescales and in line with legislation, regulations and relevant practice standards. You will work closely with families, schools, health professionals, legal services and other partner agencies to identify risks, coordinate effective support and secure the best possible outcomes.
You will contribute to service development, quality assurance and performance improvement, using management information and audit findings to identify strengths and areas for development. The role also involves responding to complex situations, managing risk, supporting staff through challenging work and contributing to a positive, learning-focused team culture.
Applicants must hold a recognised Social Work qualification and current registration with Social Work England. You should have substantial post-qualification experience in children’s social care, including safeguarding and complex case management, together with previous experience of supervising or managing social work staff. A sound knowledge of relevant legislation, statutory guidance and child protection practice is essential.
You will need excellent communication, organisation and decision-making skills, alongside the ability to build effective relationships and lead with confidence. A commitment to anti-discriminatory practice, professional integrity and improving outcomes for children and families is essential. The role may require travel across the area, so the ability to travel as needed is desirable.
