Job description

Remedy Recruitment Group are currently seeking an experienced Qualified Social Worker to work within a Referral and Assessment Team for a Local Authority based in South East London.

Job Purpose

  • Provide reliable effective social work practice that safeguards and promotes the welfare of children in need, including children in more complex situations with high levels of need and risk, so that children maintain a reasonable standard of health and development, receive reasonable parenting, and a sense of permanence through secure attachment to their parents or carers.
  • Identify in a timely way when children are unable to live at home, and take effective action to secure permanence for them within a timescale that meets their needs. Where children are looked after ensure their needs are met in accordance with their care plan, they are ready to fulfil their potential as adults and receive the right support as care leavers.
  • Model effective practice that places children at the centre of professional assessment, planning, intervention and review activity, and that their views and wishes (appropriate to their age and understanding) are sought and used to understand the child's world and shape the level of intervention and type of help offered.
