Bromley are seeking highly talented and ambitious registered Social Workers to join us on our journey to excellence.

Bromley is committed to making children and young people in the Borough its top priority. The Safeguarding and Care Planning Service works in partnership with other agencies such as Police, Health and Education, and aims to ensure children grow up with the best life chances and receive safe and consistent care.

The team works on the premise that children should be raised within their families wherever possible providing it is safe for them. We recognise that unfortunately some families struggle to care and/or consistently meet the needs of their children and need our support. The team works with children who are subject to Child in Need Plans and Child Protection Plans, striving to work with their family to create and promote the enabling environment where children can thrive and reach their full potential.

Our values and behaviours have a key part to play in how staff carry out the work of the Council and how we engage and build working relationships with key partner agencies. This framework outlines the desired behaviours that align with our established values, to help create a workforce that are able to deliver services that are seen as ‘excellent’ in the eyes of local people.

Our Safeguarding and Care Planning Service consists of 10 Safeguarding Teams; 5 in the East and 5 in the West of the borough.

You will be joining an ambitious service with strong leadership and clear lines of support. As part of the Bromley Promise there will be a dedicated two-week induction programme upon joining us.

We are confident that with your support, we will continue to provide high quality social care services to our children in Bromley as set out in our improvement and transformation plan. In return we ask that you bring your passion, dedication and skills to us.

The Bromley Promise:

· Manageable caseloads for every Social Worker

· Dedicated time for reflective supervision

· Generous Annual Leave Entitlement including an additional three days

· Small Cluster teams with one team manager supervising four Social Workers

· Two-week protected induction programme

· Excellent Learning and development opportunities with bespoke training for every social worker

· Social Workers and team managers have easy and regular access to the leadership team
