We also recognise you want to work flexibly, proportionally and safely and be supported practically and professionally to achieve the best outcomes for children and families and a healthy work life balance for yourself.
Cafcass leads the way in when it comes to professional development, flexible working, use of technology and health and wellbeing support. And these were just some of the factors that contributed to Ofsted giving us an ‘outstanding’ rating at our last inspection in 2018, just the 4th national organisation to receive this rating.
Our Social Workers are called Family Court Advisers, although you may have also heard them referred to as Children’s Guardians, and we are recruiting for our teams based from theBrightonoffice covering theSussex and Surrey areawith court duty covering both Brighton and Guildford althoughwe trust you to work flexibly whether this is in court, at home, in the office or of course, with children and families and provide the technology to enable this.

Whichever team you join, you will draw on your experience, knowledge and skills to understand what the child needs, wants and feels and effectively communicate this to the court, either in writing and/or in person.

Our work is demanding so for you to succeed and truly make a difference you should be someone who;
We would also like to draw your attention that this role has been identified as suiting someone who has a full driving licence. This is because of the nature of the work undertaken, the geographical area involved, and that public transport is not considered a viable alternative.
