Qualified Social Worker, Independent Reviewing Officer
Pay rate £40 per hour
Contract role
Vitalis are recruiting for Qualified Social Workers to work in as an Independent Reviewing Officer in Stockport Council.
The role is initially for 4 months to cover sickness absence. It is working 30 hours over 4 days per week with flexibility in start and finish times and flexible working/use of TOIL. The role is primarily as an Independent Reviewing Officer to review plans for cared for children and pathway plans of care leavers. Some members of the team also chair CP conferences and while this is not expected in the role, there may be occasions when the post-holder is asked to undertake this work to support the service.

The role is hybrid – our office base is Grand Central in Stockport (48-52 Grand Central, Wellington Road South, Stockport, SK1 3SS). There is the option to work at home but we prefer our reviews to be held in person and the post holder will need to be able to travel to Stockport to conduct reviews and visit children. There is no formula for how many office days for example but we often like to hold supervision face to face and we have team meetings monthly and training and development which is held on the Civic Campus close to Grand Central. The majority of children will live in Stockport or surrounding GM area with some placed further afield.
