Following a recent successful joint review, Nottinghamshire Social Services is in the process of building on its two star status. In our Children’s Services fieldwork teams we are currently:

  • combining our Children in Need and Looked After Teams
  • increasing the direct support we provide to our Social Workers by providing additional non-qualified support staff in all our fieldwork teams.

The Team Manager post is a crucial first line management position. Team Managers inform and implement the Department’s vision for improving services to children and families.

We currently have Team Manager vacancies in Bassetlaw/Newark and Ashfield/Mansfield, where the type and volume of work is challenging.

We are looking for creative, dynamic, hardworking and positive people who are able to work in a changing and challenging environment, manage risk and provide clear direction to the people they manage.

You will be part of a forward thinking and productive management team committed to supporting frontline staff and to providing a quality service to children and families.

We will offer the right people the chance to work in a stimulating, rewarding environment.

The benefits include:

  • regular supervision
  • a quality training programme
  • a competitive salary
  • a car loan scheme or monthly ‘lump sum’ car payment
  • black workers support group
  • six days extra annual leave.

Salaries are currently under review.
