Job Description

Children’s Social Worker, Wigan
Pay rate, £35 per hour
Fostering/CIC
Job purpose: -
Your role will be to undertake connected carers assessments, viability and regulation 24 assessments and to supervise and support Friends and Family Foster Carers who are subject to regulation 24 to support children remaining within friends and family networks where safe, if they are unable to remain with their parents.  You will prioritise safeguarding and stability whilst ensuring practice is regulatory compliant.  You will be a child focussed practitioner with a focus on improving experiences and outcomes for children and young people. You will be a team player and innovative problem solver, able to work using initiative and have strong interpersonal skills to not only engage carers, but to build supportive relationships with colleagues.
This is an amazing opportunity to support our most vulnerable children and families. You will be a qualified social worker, who relishes the opportunity to work in a fast paced, creative and supportive environment. 
Here at Wigan Council, we believe our workforce is our greatest asset and we will ensure you have the right support and a positive working environment to deliver outstanding social care to children, young people and families.
We believe that looking out for our young people and supporting families is a key priority for the future. Our children and young people have told us how important it is for them to feel safe, to have access to things that interest them and be proud of their local area. We want our young people to thrive, be proud to call the borough of Wigan home and see it as a safe and vibrant place to grow up in. We want them to be happy and to continue to feel connected with the borough as they grow into adults, with opportunities to live, work and raise their own families here. We want you to help us to achieve our goals. You will work directly with children, young people and families to build and maintain empathetic and person-centered relationships that facilitate change and encourage permanence whilst also working closely with other children’s services and partners.
