Job Description & Person Specification >

We are looking for a skilled, compassionate and motivated Family Relationship Coordinator to join our Family Help service in Children’s Services. This is an exciting opportunity to lead and support Family Group Decision Making across Torbay, helping children, young people and families find safe, sustainable solutions that build on family strengths and networks.

In this role, you will coordinate and promote Family Group Decision Making meetings, supervise a small team of Family Relationship Practitioners, and hold a small complex caseload of your own. You will work closely with children, families and multi-agency professionals to ensure plans are child-centred, timely and outcome-focused, while championing high standards of practice across the service.

What you’ll be doing

Lead the delivery and development of Family Group Decision Making across Torbay.
Line manage and support up to 5 Family Relationship Practitioners embedded in Child in Need teams.
Hold and manage a small complex caseload, directly facilitating Family Group Decision Making meetings.
Work with children, young people, parents, carers and extended family members to develop effective family-led plans.
Build strong working relationships with social care, health, police, voluntary sector and other partners.
Promote safeguarding, children’s rights and anti-oppressive practice in all aspects of the role.
Use feedback, data and performance information to evaluate impact and drive service improvement.
Provide training, guidance and advocacy to promote understanding and uptake of Family Group Decision Making.

What we’re looking for

You will bring significant experience of working with children, young people and families, alongside the confidence to coordinate professionals and influence practice positively.
You should be an effective communicator with strong organisational skills, emotional resilience, and the ability to motivate and support others.
Experience of supervision or team leadership, performance monitoring, case recording systems, and working within safeguarding frameworks will be important.
Knowledge of children’s rights, anti-oppressive practice and family-led approaches will be essential.
You will need GCSE/O Level Grade C or equivalent in English and Maths, and the ability to complete the required Family Group Conference Coordinator training within the specified timescales.
A relevant qualification in social work, teaching, mediation or a related field would be advantageous, as would previous experience or formal training in Family Group Decision Making.
