Job description

2 posts | permanent contracts | 37 or 18.5 hours per week | £27,344 per annum pro rata for part-time (Grade G) | Norwich

We are seeking experienced Community Workers to join us on a permanent basis.

2023 is an exciting time to join Norfolk County Council Childrens Services following a recent highly successful Ofsted inspection. We want children, young people, and their families in Norfolk to receive support at the earliest opportunity so that they can flourish. By acting together, as a prevention and early help system, we can enable more families to receive the right support, at the right time.

We are excited by the opportunity to implement the Start for Life and Family Hubs model in Norfolk providing support to families with children 0-19 (25 with SEND) years of age. The post will operate within Norfolk’s Family Hub network.

We will:

  • Ensure clear communications are in place so that children and families understand what services are available to them and how they access them, but also reach out to families that would benefit from support but might never proactively come to us themselves.
  • Ensure connection between services in ways that make sense for children and families, joining up pathways so that they only have to tell their story once and their service experience is smoother and more aligned.
  • Build on our strong existing work around relationships and relational practice, extending the reach of our whole family practice across the whole range of services that are part of Family Hubs.

You will be required to:

  • Provide support alongside community partners to children, young people, and their families through the delivery of early help support as part of Norfolk’s integrated Family Hub Network, working collaboratively with partners and to support the development of Community place-based service offer that responds to local need.
  • Work with local organisations and families in communities, helping them build community led provision and peer to peer support enabling more families to access locally available support at the earliest opportunity.
  • Assist with identifying children, young people and families within the community that require support and initiating the most appropriate early help response, providing access to the local early help offer or initiating early help assessment and planning where required.

Appointment will be subject to a satisfactory Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check to assess the suitability of candidates to work with children or other vulnerable groups.
