Excellent communication, coaching and facilitation skills.
A strong commitment to restorative, relationship-based, anti-discriminatory and anti-oppressive practice, and the ability to promote equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging within learning, development and social work practice.
The confidence to challenge discrimination and inequality, whilst creating inclusive learning environments where learners from all backgrounds feel valued, respected and supported to achieve their potential.
A passion for supporting others to develop their strengths, build professional confidence and reach their full potential.
Knowledge of current developments, local priorities and national reforms within children's social care and the wider organisation.

Why Join Torbay?
