Full Job Description
Anchor Foster Care is currently recruiting a full time Family Support Worker to work in the specified area. The role of the Family Support Worker is to plan, develop, deliver and support high quality work with children and young people through an agreed programme of activities and forums that facilitates their participation in current issues and decision making. This includes creating opportunities for their personal, social and educational development and providing various types of support to the Fostering Team as required in line with National Fostering Standards and agency policies. Anchor policies embed TCIF (Therapeutic Crisis Intervention for Families) practice, so that foster placements are stable, and the welfare of children and foster families remain the priority.
You will work from home and the hub in Castle Donington. It is essential that you can drive as the support work will require a considerable amount of travelling to and from our foster families' homes and other places.
If you have some relevant experience (please see job description) and would like to work for an established dynamic agency, then we would like to hear from you.
Anchor Foster Care Services is committed to safeguarding and protecting children, young people and vulnerable adults, and the promotion of equal opportunities and valuing diversity. Anchor places high importance on safe recruitment procedures by applying rigorous selection processes, for example checking the identity of applicants, online searches, receiving satisfactory references and successful completion of an enhanced check through the Disclosure and Barring Services (DBS) and if appropriate an Overseas Criminal Record Check.
Please note, in order to meet the requirements of Section 23 (1) of the Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Act 2006, Anchor Foster Care requires that all applicants have the right to work within the UK.
This position is subject to Enhanced DBS Check, Social Media checks and satisfactory references.
We offer a comprehensive salary, Private Health insurance, essential car user package and rewards package to staff, and a reward scheme of up to £1000 for referring foster families to the agency.
Anchor Foster Care is a not-for-profit, child-focused, family-centred independent fostering agency, established in 2002, to provide safety, stability and hope to vulnerable children & teenagers.
