We are seeking an experienced social worker for the Assessment Team at Peterborough City Council. You will carry out Section 17 Single Assessments and Section 47 Enquiries, participate in Initial Child Protection Conferences and Child in Need meetings, and may be involved in private law proceedings by preparing Section 7 reports.
The team operates on a three-week duty rota, meaning each team is only responsible for new referrals once every three weeks. This structure helps manage workload and allows social workers to focus on ongoing cases during off-duty weeks. Each team is supported by an Advice and Information Officer, a Children's Social Care Practitioner, and dedicated business support staff, which helps streamline administrative tasks and allows social workers to concentrate on direct work with families.

As a Tier 1 supplier to a significant number of councils across the country, we're perfectly positioned to help you - or someone you know - secure your next opportunity.
