Team Manager- Assessment and Intervention Team - East Riding (Yorkshire)
Are you an experienced and motivated social work professional looking for a leadership opportunity within children’s services? An Assessment and Intervention Team in East Riding, Yorkshire, is seeking a qualified social worker to provide effective management and professional leadership across a busy frontline service.
As Team Manager, you will lead, support and develop a team of social workers and family support practitioners, ensuring that children and families receive timely, proportionate and effective interventions. You will oversee assessments, care planning and statutory work, promoting positive outcomes for children and young people while ensuring their voices remain central to decision-making.
Your responsibilities will include providing regular supervision, reflective practice and performance management; allocating and reviewing cases; and ensuring that work is completed to a high standard and within required timescales. You will quality assure assessments, plans, reports and recording, offering constructive challenge where necessary. The role will also involve managing risk, supporting safeguarding activity and ensuring compliance with relevant legislation, statutory guidance and local procedures.
You will work closely with partner agencies, including education, health, police and other support services, building strong professional relationships to promote coordinated responses.

You should be an approachable and confident leader with excellent communication, organisational and decision-making skills. In return, you will have the opportunity to make a meaningful difference to children and families while working within a supportive and committed professional environment.
