The Role:

As a Social Worker in our Multi Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH), you’ll be part of a fast-paced, multi-disciplinary team based at our frontline contact centre in Havant. The MASH team is at the heart of our safeguarding work, triaging and assessing concerns to protect the most vulnerable children from harm, neglect, and abuse. Working closely with the Children’s Reception Team and partner agencies, you’ll ensure timely, informed, and effective responses to referrals.

This is a non-face-to-face role where your professional judgement, analytical skills, and ability to build relationships over the phone are key. You’ll assess complex information, determine risk levels, and recommend appropriate interventions, always striving for the best outcomes for children and families.

What you’ll do:

Undertake Section 47 and Section 17 enquiries to determine appropriate interventions.
Screen referrals and assess levels of risk and need.
Analyse historical and current concerns to inform decision-making.
Liaise with partner agencies to gather information and coordinate responses.
Provide professional advice to referrers and contribute to multi-agency solutions.

What we’re looking for:

Qualified Social Worker registered with Social Work England. Due to the needs of the team, we’re unable to consider Newly Qualified Social Workers for this post.
Strong knowledge of child protection legislation and safeguarding procedures.
Significant experience in statutory children’s social work, particularly in safeguarding.
Ability to analyse complex information and make sound, evidence-based decisions.
Excellent communication skills and confidence working in a multi-agency setting.
Resilient, emotionally intelligent, and committed to continuous professional development.

The ‘About you’ section explains what specific knowledge, skills and experience we want you to tell us about. Make sure you explain how you meet these requirements and demonstrate our values, in your application.

Why join us?

Make a difference: Join a supportive, collaborative team that makes a real impact in children’s lives.
Outstanding support: Benefit from regular, reflective supervision and a culture that values your voice.
Career development: 5 personal development days per year and access to excellent learning opportunities through our DfE ‘Partner in Practice’ initiative.
Relocation assistance: Up to £8,500 available for experienced UK-based Social Workers relocating to Hampshire (subject to management approval).
Wellbeing support: Access to Health Assured's comprehensive Employee Assistance Programme to support your physical and mental wellbeing, including 24/7 telephone support, a suite of online resources, and legal and financial advice.
Competitive benefits package: Generous annual leave, occupational sick pay, and access to the Local Government Pension Scheme. Find more information here.
