Home based, covering Buckinghamshire and surrounding areas
18.5 hours/week – fixed term appointment to April 2026
Are you a skilled and dedicated social worker eager to apply your expertise and experience to a new role? Do you want to be part of a supportive and collaborative team at one of the UK’s most successful adoption charities, rated outstanding by Ofsted since 2014?
With your social work experience you will support birth relatives whose children have a plan for adoption or have been placed for adoption. Working closely with colleagues in Buckinghamshire Council who will refer the relatives to PACT, you’ll provide support through individual, support groups and drop-in sessions.
This role will include supporting birth relatives to meet with adoptive parents and to help them understand the importance for children, to keep connected to significant people from their past.
Ideally, you’ll have experience of working with birth relatives whose children have been placed for adoption and you’ll have a good understanding of the adoption process. You’ll work with relatives from a range of diverse backgrounds, lived experiences and those who may be neuro diverse and you’ll need to demonstrate understanding, respectfulness and adaptability to your social work practice.
