We are seeking a candidate with demonstrable knowledge and experience of working with children and young people who have displayed harmful sexual behaviours (including AIM3 assessment training as a minimum).
This is a unique role, providing specialist assessments and interventions to children and their families across the spectrum of children's services to work and prevent, wherever possible, entry into the criminal justice system.
Although we are seeking a youth justice practitioner, the ideal candidate will be skilled and effective in interprofessional and interagency collaboration to achieve the best possible outcome for children and their families.
A social work qualification would be advantageous, but applicants would be welcome from allied disciplines including youth work, youth justice, early help, counselling, or other therapeutic professions.
We are seeking a candidate with a proven ability to write high-quality and analytical assessments for courts and other professional arenas which convey complexity of risk, safety, and support needs.
The candidate will have recent experience of working therapeutically with children and their families who have displayed harmful sexual behaviour and who have complex needs, including planning and delivering therapeutic interventions.
The role involves direct work with children and their families, including home visits, and therefore a driving licence and access to a car are essential.
Although this is a full-time role, flexible working arrangements will be considered for the right candidate, which include options to work remotely as part of Barnsley MBC's commitment to support a work-life balance.
