We are looking for an imaginative, creative worker who has a passion to ensure young people's voices are heard.

We have an established quality assurance framework within the service and we expect the new post holder to co-ordinate our audit's across service building on the work that's already in place.

Supplementary Information
  • The post holder must be a qualified Social Worker and registered to practice via Social Work England.
  • Experience of working with Looked after Children and Care Leavers is essential.
  • Experience of working with the Signs of Safety programme is desirable.
  • Experience of supervising staff is desirable.
  • Previous experience of case audit is desirable.
