Manage 2 Social Work Pods

A Local Authority based in London is looking to take on a Team Manager to provide operational leadership to 2 of its Pods within their Corporate Parenting service. This is an excellent opportunity to work for a Local Authority who have successfully redesigned the service and adopted the Hackney Model. Furthermore, the Local Authority has made no cuts to its Social Care budget in the last 2-3 years and has actually created more jobs for permanent staff.

As a Team Manager you will be managing 2 pods and each pods would in turn be managed by an Advanced Practitioner and consist of a Senior Practitioner and 2 Social Workers. Pods will also contain a Leaving Care Coach and a Family Finder. Social Workers in the team deal with service users between the ages of 0 - 25 whose cases have been forwarded on from the assessment team requiring intervention. As such Social Workers in the team cover cases following assessment through to permanency and there is a Court Work element.

As a Team Manager you will receive access to training; the Local Authority uses Systemic Practice and there are currently 2 managers who are attending University on a Systemic Leadership course which is being funded by the Local Authority. As well as training in Systemic Practice you will have access to a range of courses provided by affiliated universities which will be funded by the Local Authority.

To be considered for this post you should have managed a similar Social Work service and have strong experience of Court Work.
