Job description

Opus people solutions on behalf of Northampton Childrens Trust have an exciting opportunity for a Senior Social Worker to join their Support and Safeguarding Team

Our support and safeguarding teams are nurturing and supportive with their own unique identities. They cover a large diverse county with several offices across Northamptonshire including; Northampton, Daventry, Corby, Kettering and Wellingborough.


These teams support children and young people who are subject to a Child Protection Plan, Child in Need plan and, if appropriate, court proceedings. This kind of social work often takes place over several months and involves regular visits with families.
Focussed on positive outcomes, they work in challenging yet supportive and collaborative ways.
Working alongside other professionals, the team help put together plans to reduce the risks and areas of unmet needs to help children/ young people to remain with their families when it is safe to do so.

This role is based in Northampton and Daventry

If you thrive to make a difference and have 3 years Social worker experience and this is the role for you, then we would love to hear from you.
