This is a pivotal role within the My SPACE Team, working to support children and young people who are at risk of exploitation or who are being exploited. As a CE Social Worker, you will play a key role in building trusted relationships and delivering meaningful, one-to-one support to help safeguard and empower vulnerable young people.
You will be responsible for engaging children directly, completing targeted interventions, and supporting them to understand risk, build resilience, and make safer choices. You will work closely with colleagues, partner agencies, and families to ensure a coordinated and child centred approach.
This role requires someone who thrives in a fast-paced and dynamic environment, can respond to changing circumstances, and is confident in managing a varied workload. You will need to be organised, proactive, and able to work both independently and as part of a supportive team.
- Delivering direct one-to-one interventions with children and young people
- Building and maintaining positive, professional relationships with those at risk
- Effectively managing and prioritising a varied caseload
- Maintaining accurate and detailed records with strong attention to detail
- Handling sensitive information with a high level of confidentiality and professionalism
- Working collaboratively with multi-agency partners to support the child’s needs
- Using digital systems and tools (e.g. Microsoft Office, Teams) to support casework and communication
This role suits someone who is passionate about safeguarding and making a genuine difference in the lives of children. You will be committed to high standards of practice, confident in engaging young people, and motivated to work both independently and as part of a team to achieve positive outcomes.
