Job Description

Remedy Recruitment Group are currently seeking an experienced Advanced Practitioner to work within a Children in Care Team for Newcastle City Council.

Job Purpose

We are looking for a highly skilled and motivated Advanced Practitioner to join our Reunification Team within children in care. This is a non-case holding role that offers the opportunity to support colleagues, practice development and complete reunification assessments.
You will bring expertise in risk assessment and management, and play a key role in shaping high-quality, evidence-based practice. You will complete and oversee a range of specialist assessments for children and families in respect of reunification or for whom care orders are no longer appropriate, including:
Parenting Assessments
Placement with parents assessments
Capacity to protect assessments
Other bespoke assessments as required, for example sibling attachment assessments, special guardianship assessment and others
Assisting with the preparation of court work and discharge of care orders
You will also mentor and support social workers, helping to build their confidence and consistency in assessment work. While the role is non-caseholding, you will be involved in complex cases and will also prepare high-quality reports and give evidence in court. 

Key Requirements:

Qualified Social Worker with Social Work England registration
Extensive experience in complex assessments, care proceedings, and court work
Proven ability to assess and manage risk effectively
Strong mentoring, leadership, and communication skills
Experience in service development and strategic planning
This is a unique opportunity to influence practice, support reunification where safe to do so, and make a lasting impact on children and families.
