Job description

Front Door | MASH | Supportive management | Flexible contract length

Do you enjoy fast paced work? Working with partners to ensure swift assessments at the very front door of children’s services? Then the MASH team could be the perfect fit.

Benefits to you:

• Great pay - £38/h
• Flexible working
• Longstanding perm management team
• Non-caseholding role
• Stable service

You will be the first point of contact for incoming referrals, working in a supportive team that thresholds and decides the best pathways for referrals within tight deadlines in order to ensure the best possible outcomes.

Albeit experience in MASH will definitely give you a head-start, the team is happy to consider you if you have a demonstrable history of assessing and thresholding in a similarly paced children’s team.

The Council is dedicated to providing timely support for every child, aiming to ensure a happy and fulfilling life. This comes from focusing on continuous improvement, embracing effective social work practices (systemic practice & relational approach), and empowering staff to have a real impact on children's lives. The team structure is carefully designed to support staff with manageable caseloads, including a Team Manager, Advanced Practitioner, and four Social Workers in each team.

Interested in making a move and settling down in an authority offering long term prospects, settled in some of England’s finest countryside? Send your CV to [e-mail] or call on 07897 024978.

As this is a statutory role, you do require a social work qualification & registration to Social Work England.
