With the national rollout of Child Focused Courts , we are leading a transformation in how children's voices are heard and how decisions are made in family proceedings. Child Focused Courts place children's safety, wellbeing and lived experience at the centre of decision-making from the very start of proceedings. This problem solving, less adversarial approach allows decisions to be informed earlier by a clear understanding of children's experiences, including through the preparation of Child Impact Reports. The role at a glance Family Court Advisors in the Information and screening position play a central role in ensuring a consistent and child focused response at the earliest stage of involvement.

You are required to gather clear information, collaborate with partners, and at times may be required to complete direct work with families. What you'll be doing As a FCA at Cafcass, you will: Complete high quality assessments, engaging directly with children to understand their experiences, wishes and feelings - and ensure these are clearly and powerfully represented to the family court. Apply your expertise in risk assessment, analysis and mediation, advocating for solutions that place the child's safety, wellbeing and long term interests at the centre of decision making. Work with adults, local authorities, and a wide range of professionals to help resolve complex issues and influence better outcomes for children. Who we are looking for We welcome applications from qualified and experienced Children's Social Workers who share our commitment to child centred practice. You will need A recognised Social Work qualification To be registered with Social Work England An understanding of family court processes and private and/or public law Strong analytical, organisational and communication skills Resilience, professional curiosity and confidence in working independently We recognise that social workers bring experience from a wide range of settings, including local authority, court, voluntary, safeguarding and therapeutic roles. If your background aligns with our purpose, we encourage you to apply. In addition to the job description, we've created a factsheet providing some extra information on Child Focused Courts. Both documents - and any others we think you may want to view - are a 'vacancy document' you can access when you are on our recruitment system and available to you before you start to apply. Where you'll work Our Social Workers work flexibly across multiple settings - including the office in Birmingham, home, courts, schools and other appropriate, safe locations, and we ensure you have the technology to do this. Shared learning is very important to us, and we bring our teams together regularly, both remotely and in-person, for team meetings and group supervision, which creates space to connect with peers and managers, reflect on practice, and feel supported.

Ein nod yw helpu holl bobl ifanc y DU i drawsnewid eu cyfleoedd gyrfa a bywyd. Yn 2024, fe wnaethom gyflwyno gweithgareddau wyneb yn wyneb i 73,000 o bobl ifanc ac ymgysylltu â 2.5 miliwn gyda chynnwys digidol. Rydym yn falch o'r effaith y mae ein tîm bach, ymroddedig yn ei chael, a dim ond gyda gwirfoddolwyr ymroddedig, ysgolion a phartneriaid ariannu sy'n gwerthfawrogi'r gwasanaethau a gynigiwn y gallwn gyflawni'r llwyddiant hwn. Fe'n sefydlwyd yn Luton yn 2012, ac yn 2024 yn dilyn grant hael gan Moondance Foundation fe wnaethom lansio ein gwaith yng Nghymru. Hyd yn hyn, rydym wedi cefnogi 20,000 o fyfyrwyr Cymreig mewn chwarter o ysgolion uwchradd Cymru. Erbyn 2029 ein nod yw bod yn gweithio ym mhob ysgol uwchradd y wladwriaeth ledled y wlad. Rydym yn chwilio am arweinydd strategol i fynd â'n gwaith yng Nghymru i'r lefel nesaf. Gyda goruchwyliaeth ein Cyflymydd Cymru, bydd deiliad y swydd yn datblygu perthnasau gydag arianwyr, y cyfryngau, y llywodraeth, a chwaraewyr allweddol eraill i agor drysau ar gyfer ein gwaith ledled Cymru. Byddwch yn gwrando ar ac yn ymateb i anghenion lleol i gyfeirio ein gwaith gweithredol ar lawr gwlad. Bydd llwyddiant yn y rôl hon yn cael ei fesur yn ôl ein proffil cynyddol, partneriaethau newydd ac incwm a sicrheir i sicrhau cynaliadwyedd ariannol hirdymor ein gwaith yng Nghymru. Rydym yn hyblyg ynghylch a yw hon yn swydd amser llawn neu'n rhan-amser. Bydd deiliad y swydd yn gweithio'n agos gyda mi a'n Hymddiriedolwyr, ein Hymgynghorwyr a'n Llysgenhadon allweddol (unigolion proffil uchel â chysylltiadau da o ystod o sectorau), yn ogystal â'n Pennaeth Rhaglen a'n tîm cyflawni ar gyfer Cymru. Bydd eich cyfraniad at ein gwaith yn hanfodol i'n llwyddiant, gan gael y nifer uchaf o fusnesau, unigolion ac ysgolion i ymuno'n mudiad i helpu holl bobl ifanc Cymru i gyflawni llwyddiant gyrfa.

Full time
At Working Options, we are keenly aware that talent exists in all parts of society, and yet opportunities are not available to all. We aim to help all young people in the UK to transform their career and life chances. In 2024 we delivered in-person activities for 73,000 young people and engaged 2.5 million with digital content. We are proud of the impact our small, dedicated team has, and we can only achieve this success with committed volunteers, schools and funding partners who value the services we offer. We were founded in Luton in 2012, and in 2024 following a generous grant from the Moondance Foundation we launched our work in Wales. So far, we have supported 20,000 Welsh students in a quarter of Welsh secondary schools. By 2029 we aim to be working in all state secondary schools across the country. We are looking for a strategic lead to take our work in Wales to the next level. With oversight of our Wales Accelerator, the postholder will develop relationships with funders, media, government, and other key players to open doors for our work across Wales. You will listen and respond to local needs to direct our operational work on the ground. Success in this role will be measured by our increased profile, new partnerships and income secured to ensure the long-term financial sustainability of our work in Wales. We are flexible about whether this is a full-time or part-time position. The postholder will work closely with me and our Trustees, our key Advisors and Ambassadors (high-profile and well-connected individuals from a range of sectors), as well as our Head of Programme and delivery team for Wales. Your contribution to our work will be critical to our success, maximising the number of businesses, individuals and schools joining our movement to help all young people in Wales achieve career success.
