Description

At Staffscanner, we’re building something a little different. Thoughtfully matched, fully supported.
We’re founded by care providers, built with people at heart, and powered by smart technology. That means we understand the pressures, priorities, and purpose behind your work — and we’ve designed a service that reflects that.

YOU DON’T NEED EXPERIENCE IN ALL THESE AREAS.

If you have strong experience in just one of these areas — you’re the kind of social worker we’re looking for. You’ll be matched with teams that suit your background and supported from day one.

Responsibilities

ABOUT THE ROLE:

We’re working with local authorities across London to fill high-demand frontline roles in:

  • Child Protection (CP)
  • Children in Need (CIN)
  • Looked After Children (LAC)
  • Court & Pre-proceedings
  • Assessment & MASH
  • Children with Disabilities (CWD)
  • Fostering & Permanence

DEPENDING ON YOUR SKILLSET, YOUR ROLE COULD INVOLVE:

  • Holding CP, CIN or LAC caseloads
  • Attending strategy meetings, court hearings, or core groups
  • Undertaking S47 assessments and working within the PLO process
  • Building strong relationships with children, families, and professionals
  • Contributing to care planning, permanence, or placement stability
  • Supporting transitions, family reunification, or foster placement reviews
