Fostering Social Worker

Do you want to be part of a revolutionary new approach to fostering?

HOME Fostering, powered by Social adventures, has launched a pioneering fostering model that opens up fostering opportunities to more people than ever before. For too long, many potential foster carers have been held back by not having a suitable home environment. Our innovative project overcomes that barrier making fostering more accessible, inclusive, and life-changing for young people and families.

As our second Fostering Social Worker, you’ll play a central role in making this vision a reality. This is a rare opportunity to join our agency near the start of our journey and to contribute to the shaping and development of a truly child centred agency with an ethical mindset. You will be a critical part of our recruitment, assessment, training and support of foster carers and involved in matching them with their new homes, creating new fostering families.

We’re looking for someone who is:

• An experienced social worker with a proven track record in working with children and their families in a statutory setting.

• Highly organised, IT-confident, and experienced in evidence based assessment.

• An excellent communicator who can work with carers, colleagues and local authorities.

• Motivated by being part of a transformational project that will change lives.

• Has a real passion for supporting children and sibling groups

In return, we offer:

• The chance to be part of a sector-leading initiative with real social impact.

• Be part of a purpose-driven, not-for-profit team

• Make a real difference to the lives of children

• Enjoy flexible working and a friendly, supportive culture

• Ongoing training and professional development.

Join us in shaping the future of fostering and help us remove barriers so more children can find the loving homes they deserve.
