As a Level 2 Children’s Services Adoption Social Worker, you’ll take a lead in twin-tracking for children who have a care plan for adoption, completing child permanence reports, working together through the court process, finding suitable placements, preparing children for moving to their adoptive family, completing link reports for Panel, then placing the child and supporting adoptive families, until the Adoption Order is granted.
If you’re a conscientious and resilient Social Worker and are registered with Social Work England as a Social Worker with a talent for relationship building, we want to hear from you.
Lincolnshire is rated as Outstanding Authority by Ofsted. We endeavour to create an adoption experience that is individually tailored to the needs of children in our care, enabling them to express their characters, feel safe and enrich their lives. Alongside making a difference to the lives of children and families in Lincolnshire, we’re sharing best practice and driving innovation alongside other authorities by being a member of the Family Adoption Links regional partnership.
Our people are at the heart of this progress: that’s why we make sure they have access to the best support, development, and training opportunities. You will also have access to regional training and attend national working groups, in addition to the excellent training on offer from Lincolnshire.
The successful applicant will enjoy a salary of £37,938 – £41,511, 28 days annual leave plus bank holidays (pro-rata) and this is a permanent position.
