7292 Residential Social Worker - Children's House

As part of an integrated service we work closely with our colleagues in Barnardo's Fostering to ensure the next move is the last.

We are seeking applications from people who enjoy being creative, who like to step into messy and sometimes chaotic situations to find a way through, often in the face of trauma, abuse and family dysfunction.

You will need to be innovative, authentic, passionate and a brave advocate, speaking out for children, even if your voice trembles.

In return for your commitment we offer:

• On-site support and guidance
• Ongoing clinical support
• Training in Trauma Informed Practice
• Training in Sensory Informed Practice
• Access to accredited training programmes e.g. TCI, DPP

Salary: FTE £27,772 - £31,990 (Sleep In Allowance of £62.64)
