Social Worker or Senior Social Worker, Adoption Team – closing date 8 March 2024

Based in Vauxhall, London with hybrid flexible working arrangements

Are you a skilled and dedicated social worker eager to apply your expertise and experience to a new role? Could you become a vital part of the supportive and collaborative team at one of the UK’s most successful adoption charities, rated outstanding by Ofsted since 2014?

At PACT we are genuinely passionate about helping families thrive. We believe that every child deserves a loving and supportive home and we are committed to providing the highest quality services to help make that a reality.

Our adoption teams focus on assessing prospective adopters who can consider early permanence and/or adopting a wide range of children of all ages, sibling groups, from diverse ethnicities and who may have disabilities.

With your social work experience you will manage all aspects of work with our valued applicants from the early stages of recruitment, information sharing meetings, assessment, preparation and training, through to successful placement and post placement support up to the making of the adoption order.

Ideally, you will have previous experience of completing Prospective Adopter’s Reports, or similar such as Form Fs, and/or experience in family finding activity for children requiring permanence.
