Early Intervention Family Worker

We are looking to recruit a part time Early Intervention Family Worker, to work 30 hours per week. You will work in partnership with Dundee City Council schools to ensure the effective implementation of both individual and group programmes of support designed to promote children’s wellbeing and attainment.

You must also be able to demonstrate knowledge of children’s needs and development and the impact of wider environmental and family factors upon a child’s well-being.

At Aberlour we want to make sure every child and young person has the love, support and opportunity they need to reach their potential. If you share the same vision, we want you to join our team.
