Social Worker, Family First with Bournemouth Council in Bournemouth, Dorset. A permanent, full time post recruited by Pro Social Partners.

The role

What the work is

Early help and child in need work aimed at keeping families together before anything escalates. Practical, relationship led, and less court facing than safeguarding.

• Total package up to £49,817

Benefits

• Smaller caseloads and intensive direct work
• See families turn a corner and stay together
