AddressWe are recruiting for the role of Family Court Advisor in our team covering the Nottingham or Derby areas.
However, as our teams work flexibly and remotely your proximity to a Cafcass office is unlikely to be a critical consideration as we trust and empower colleagues to work in a hybrid way, providing the resources, equipment and support to enable this.
Prior to applying, as well as reading the formal job description, you will also be able to find out more about how we are the voice of children and young people when the family court makes critical decisions about their futures. You may also be interested in finding out more about the range of health and wellbeing support available for colleagues, as well as excellent benefits we offer.
Let us tell you a bit more about the role…
Working in the Public and Private Law team, Family Court Advisers are involved in a combination of cases where either the families require the assistance to agree on the best arrangements for the welfare and safety of the child(ren) involved or the local authority has serious concerns and requests the involvement of Cafcass in the case. Family Court Advisers are typically involved in undertaking direct work with children, gaining their views and wishes and representing these to the court via written reports and giving evidence and advocating for arrangements that are in the best interests of the child(ren) involved.
… and what we’re looking for.
Being a Family Court Adviser is very rewarding – but it’s not for everyone. You must be a Social Work England registered Social Worker who’s organised, resilient and able to work independently. Confident in your abilities, you’ll also have demonstrable experience of working with children and families over a sustained period.
Next steps
All you need to do start your application is follow the link through to our recruitment system, where you will also find lots of helpful and insightful information that we hope will further convince you that Cafcass and this role is where you want to go next in your career.
