We are looking for an experienced and committed Social Worker to co-ordinate our response to missing children. This will include undertaking return home interviews, contributing to risk management plans, liaising with commissioned services and police regarding timeliness and quality of response, collating data and audit activity to provide assurance regarding the robustness of our practice to children who go missing.

We are looking for a child-focussed and tenacious practitioner who is able to liaise effectively with partners and provide a flexible and proactive service to some of our most vulnerable children.

We are committed to protecting and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expect all staff to share this commitment. This post is working in regulated activity.
