Supervising Social WorkerHeath Farm
- Permanent
Salary: £43,000 - £46,000 per annum (this includes a car allowance)
Introduction
This is an amazing opportunity to join National Fostering Group as a Supervising Social Worker with Heath Farm. This agency is based in Herne Bay, Kent and our Ofsted rating is Good
We are an independent fostering agency with a holistic, wraparound care approach for children who have complex needs. We work with more than 70 foster carers and over 100 foster children.
As a creative, resilient and responsible member of our team, you will be at the heart of helping to create happy homes for young people and their carers – homes where incredible futures can begin.
The role
As a member of our brilliant team of social workers, you will understand the life-changing potential of a safe and supportive home life. You will play a key role in helping vulnerable children and young people find a foster home that can transform their future. You will also supervise and advise foster carers, and make sure that both carers and children have the support they need to thrive.
You will visit homes and keep in touch with both carers and young people, becoming an essential point of contact for all – a safeguarding champion with everyone's best interests at heart. We keep caseloads lower to decrease risk and to offer more bespoke, person-centric focus. This means more time to work closely with both the young people and their carers to deliver the best possible outcomes.
You will collaborate with our specialist clinical teams to identify and make available the right kinds of support, from occupational therapy to art therapy, and clinicians with specialism in trauma and attachment theory.
As a key team member in one of our local fostering agencies, you will make sure that our children and young people are safe and secure, that they are well looked after, and that our high standards are consistently maintained.
Through your passion and commitment, you will inspire carers to grow in confidence and achieve their potential, with a real impact on the children they care for.
Who we are looking for
You will be passionate about building incredible lives for children, and helping foster carers be the best they can be. You will be confident and imaginative, with either a BA or MA degree in social work and an energetic and open-minded approach. You will also need to be registered with the appropriate body and hold a full driving licence.
Carers and children will be relying on you to create supportive, nurturing relationships, so you will need to show that you've had previous social work experience, with a record of working with young people who have a history of trauma and enhanced needs.
You will be excited by taking on real responsibility, and you will be ready and willing to benefit from all the support we offer to help you do your job. You will also be generous with your own skills and experience, helping our whole team to excel.
But what else is in it for you? Your health and wellbeing are important to us, so you'll get an exceptional reward package including:
- Up to 39 days annual leave each year (25 base entitlement + 1 One moment in time + 8 bank holidays + ability to buy up to 5 extra days)
- Life Assurance
- Pension scheme with options to increase your contributions
- "Your Wellbeing Matters" – access to a wide range of first-class mental health support services and physical health checks
And a market-leading benefit offering through our Flexible Benefits Platform, Vista, enables you to choose the package that's right for you, including:
- A wide range of health, wellbeing, and insurance benefits
- 100's of discount options valid in the UK and abroad
- Cycle to Work Schemes
- Electric Car Purchase Scheme
- Critical illness cover
And that's not all, we place the outcomes of the children and vulnerable young adults in our services at the heart of everything we do, so you'll wake every day in the knowledge that your role will have a significant positive impact on the lives of others.
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and we expect all employees to share this commitment and undertake appropriate checks.
Wherever you work – whether in a city location or one of our more rural settings – you'll be part of one dynamic family, aiming high and dreaming big, and helping the people we work with achieve their own personal goals.
