About the Role

This role is within the Referral and Assessment Service.

The Referral and Assessment Teams receive all new referrals from the Bromley MASH and undertake Child and Family assessments to determine how best children's needs can be met.

There are 6 teams, each consisting of a team manager and 5 social workers.

The teams go onto duty for one week every 6 weeks and during their duty week, social workers will receive new allocations.

Referral and Assessment Team Managers oversee/manage approximately 50 families at any given time.

Bromley has made a huge investment in terms of staffing in order to ensure that social workers have lower caseloads.

Referral and Assessment Social Workers will carry an average of 8 families.

Social workers in the service are positive, motivated and feel that their current caseload allows them complete good social work interventions with families.

As part of the Bromley Promise, there will be a dedicated two-week induction programme upon joining us.

You will be working within smaller teams comprising of just five Social Workers/Senior Practitioners which are headed up by the Team Manager.

Our senior managers are accessible, ensuring you have support when needed.
