Contact Supervision Worker

***PELASE NOTE WE ARE UNABLE TO OFFER SPONSORSHIP***

Are you passionate about supporting children and families? A role as a Contact Supervision Worker offers a unique opportunity to facilitate safe and meaningful interactions between children and their families, ensuring that contact arrangements are followed while prioritizing the well-being of the child.

This role involves supervising and supporting children under the age of ten during contact visits with their parents. You will be responsible for transporting children safely from their placements to contact venues and ensuring that each visit runs smoothly. Observing interactions and maintaining accurate records are key aspects of the role, requiring strong written and verbal communication skills. Any safeguarding concerns must be promptly reported to senior staff to ensure the protection of children at all times.

Successful candidates will have substantial experience working with children, either professionally, voluntarily, or personally. The ability to build professional relationships with parents, foster carers, social workers, and other professionals is essential. A strong understanding of safeguarding and child protection is required, along with the ability to work independently and make informed decisions in line with policies and procedures.

Flexibility is crucial, as the role requires availability outside of core hours to accommodate family needs. A valid driving license and sole use of a car for work purposes are required, as contact visits may take place across various locations. Basic IT skills are needed to complete reports and use internal systems effectively.

Training opportunities will be provided to enhance professional development, and there will be ongoing support to ensure the highest standards of care and supervision. If you are dedicated, compassionate, and eager to support children in maintaining family connections, apply today and become part of a team committed to making a positive impact.
