Working alongside qualified Social Work staff, you will help improve and maintain the quality of service provided to children and families across the north of the city.

The role is full time, 37 hours per week. Core hours are 08:45–17:15 Monday to Thursday, with an earlier finish of 16:45 on Fridays. A car and full driving licence are beneficial given the significant travel requirements of the post.
