🌟 Qualified Social Worker – Family Safeguarding Team
📍 Location: Lancashire
💷 Pay Rate: £41 per hour
📅 Contract Type: Agency (via Pertemps Social Care)

Are you an experienced Social Worker looking to make a real impact in children's lives? Join a proactive and supportive Family Safeguarding Team in Lancashire, where your expertise will be valued, your work will make a difference, and you'll be part of a service committed to early help, safeguarding, and lasting change for vulnerable families.

🔍 The Role
You’ll play a vital part in assessing and supporting children and families, intervening early where needed, and planning for permanence from day one. This role includes:

Undertaking assessments, Section 47 Enquiries, and Children in Need work
Working closely with families and multi-agency partners (police, health, education)
Planning and delivering sustainable interventions with measurable outcomes
Championing best practice, and aligning with the local Family Hubs and Early Help teams
Ensuring the child’s voice is heard throughout the process

You’ll be part of a team that ensures children and families receive the right support at the right time — and that when social care involvement ends, support from the local community continues.

✅ What You’ll Bring
We’re looking for someone who is:

A Qualified Social Worker, registered with Social Work England
4+ years post-qualified, with solid experience in child protection, safeguarding, or family support
Confident working in fast-paced, multi-agency environments
Knowledgeable in Child Protection legislation and care planning
Skilled in direct work with children and families
A strong communicator and advocate for vulnerable children
Creative, resilient, and reflective in your practice

📋 In This Role, You Will:

Manage a complex caseload with care and efficiency
Complete high-quality assessments and care plans
Make decisions based on risk, need, and the child’s best interests
Provide advice and support to junior staff and students
Use your skills to create long-lasting, positive outcomes for families

💼 Why Join Pertemps?
As an agency worker with Pertemps Social Care, you’ll benefit from:

✅ A dedicated consultant with access to exclusive roles across the UK
✅ Simple, fast online registration
✅ Weekly payroll that's prompt and reliable
✅ £250 referral bonus – no limits!
✅ Full compliance support so you can focus on your work
✅ Ongoing access to new opportunities and career support
