The role is hybrid working with a mixture of home working, visits in the community with service users and office based work. As such, there is a requirement for the successful candidate to be a car driver as you will still be providing face-to-face support to families across the city where applicable.

3. Undertake initial assessment work with families.
4. Carrying out emergency interventions and support visits to families.

The ideal candidate will have:

1. Experience of working with young people and their families.
2. Full UK driving license.
3. Enhanced DBS check.
4. Be able to work upon own initiative and within a team.
