About the Role and our Ideal Candidate About the role The Adolescent Team work with young people that are 'edge of care', we aim to support young people and families to overcome barriers and prevent young people from going into care. Workers will support a caseload of young people (aged 11-17) who are potentially at the edge of care and/or at risk of exploitation which is leading them to display risky behaviours. You will look to create a plan of interventions to support the child and their families which leads to better outcomes and reduces risks. You will need to think holistically about working with children and families with complex needs using restorative approached to support families to stay together. Some flexibility is required as visits to families may be required outside of regular office hours and you may be required to work a weekend every 6 weeks. Our ideal candidate You will be passionate and experienced in understanding the needs and complexities around vulnerable adolescents. You will ideally have experience of working with caseloads of young people and carrying out assessments, intervention plans and direct work with families. You will be able to think creatively around support packages for families meeting their needs and being innovative with your approaches. You will have experience of being part of multi agency meetings and representing your organisation in formal situations being confident with a range of partner agencies.

About Us You will be joining an enthusiastic, friendly and supportive Service who puts families and young people at the heart of what they do. The Adolescent service is part of a wider service including the Early help team and Youth Justice Service. You will work closely with social care and the service is seen as an integral part of improving outcomes for young people and is widely valued. We are looking to increase our edge of care offer so we can offer more bespoke, intensive services to keep young people at home when we know their long term outcomes would be better and where safe to do so. The service consists of 3 managers within the Adolescent team but 8 across the wider service so there is a great deal of support and expertise in the team. There are 7 other staff within the adolescent service but 40 staff across the whole service. We believe in caring for our staff, being flexible to their needs, creating reflective spaces and developing our own with excellent opportunities for training.
