We need an interim Team Manager for our Resilience Around Families Team (RAFT). RAFT is a multi-professional team within children’s social care who provide additional support to social workers to support families. The team includes family workers, adult mental health professionals, adult substance misuse professionals, education support professionals, training and employment professionals. The team co-ordinates our team of volunteers and supervises our Family Time offer (Contact). RAFT work with priority cohorts of families including preventing children coming into care and supporting them to return home from care. The Team Manager does not need to be a qualified social worker but does need to be an experienced manager working within social care and understands early help and preventative approaches.
