Wider Safeguarding Team Social Worker – Sedgemoor
Somerset County Council have an exciting opportunity for a Social Worker to join our Wider Safeguarding team in Sedgemoor. You’ll be working with families at Child In Need and Child Protection, and in the pre-proceedings and proceedings stages. You’ll be working with children experiencing or at risk of exploitation, with families where parents’ learning needs are having a significant impact, with children who have suffered a non-accidental injury, and with families where sexual risk or harm is the primary concern.

About us…
You will be working in a team which is predominantly permanently staffed, with a mixture of newly qualified and more experienced social work staff. You’ll work alongside colleagues in our two Family Safeguarding Teams: although the teams each have separate Team Managers, they work together to support each other and share skills and knowledge. The team pride themselves on a strong learning culture and on their ethos of mutual support. The team have had good feedback in our recent Ofsted inspection and team diagnostics about the quality of their work, and about their team culture.

The role…
Here in Somerset, our manageable caseloads let you be the innovative and creative social worker you want to be – undertaking direct work with children and young people to hear their voice and understand their experiences. You will work with parents and the wider family network, with access to Family Group Conferencing, to support them to identify strengths, tackle problems and change interactions and behaviours. With skilled Team Managers, you’ll be well supported with regular and reflective group and personal supervision.

What we can offer you…
• Friendly and supportive teams, made up of staff with a range of experience, focused on improving outcomes for children and supporting children wherever possible to remain within their families
• Regular and good quality CPD and training
• We’re supporting flexible working arrangements and our offices meet the Covid-19 Secure standards. Up-to-date technology is provided to help you stay connected to your team and manager through virtual meetings, team check-ins and service sessions.

What we’re looking for…
You will be passionate about relationship-based social work, proud of your profession, and able to reflect and think creatively about how you can build relationships to make a difference to children and families. You will need to be a qualified social worker registered with Social Work England and have substantial experience working with children and families in social work.

We are proud to offer an environment that is supportive and rewarding, within a friendly team who are passionate about the work that they do to improve the lives of people in Somerset. We are excited to continue developing our authority after our recent positive Ofsted inspection, and we welcome all staff’s ideas and contributions as we look to the next stage.
