Social Worker, Children in Care with Bournemouth Council in Bournemouth, Dorset. A permanent, full time post recruited by Pro Social Partners.

The role

The Children in Care team holds long-term responsibility for looked after children: care planning, permanence, statutory visits and the steady relationships that children in care deserve from their worker.

What the work is

Care planning for children already in care. Reviews, permanence, life story work, contact and placement stability. The work is planned rather than reactive.

Why it could suit you

This is work measured in stability and school photos, not case closures. It suits workers who stay, notice and advocate hard.

• Total package up to £49,817

Benefits

• Long-term relationship-based practice
• Coastal living with real frontline work
