Your Role

We’re really excited to start creating our multi-agency child protection teams (MACPTs) and the lead child protection practitioner (LCPP) role is integral to the functioning of this.

The Families First Partnership Programme (FFPP) guide outlines the new LCPP role. The guide states that this social work role should be embedded in the MACPT and that LCPPs should:

have substantial frontline child protection experience within children’s social care and an in-depth knowledge of the statutory and legislative framework
be skilled at identifying and responding to all types of significant harm, including extra-familial harm
know how to work skilfully and confidently with families and parents in child protection, including those who have demonstrated resistant, hostile and/or deceptive behaviour
this role requires you to be passionate about improving outcomes for children, and possess a strong competency in child protection knowledge

About You

If you’re an experienced, skilled, qualified social worker looking for your next career step, then this may be just the role for you! We’re looking for people who are:

Dedicated to wanting to keep children safe and give them the best opportunities
Tenacious and passionate about achieving positive outcomes for children
Strong in their verbal and written communication skills, to professionals, families, and children
Able to work independently and who thrives in being a part of a multi-agency team
Sees the benefit in sharing their practice knowledge and wisdom with others, whilst also offering respectful challenge when things aren’t right
You must be registered with Social Work England.

About Us

The role will be a part of the newly established multi agency child protection team (MACPT), as outlined in the national social care reforms.

As this is a brand-new role, you will need to be creative and responsive, helping us to shape the LCPP role and the MACPT, in line with the guidance under the FFPP. We will work together and you’ll be supported to embed this role into the MACPT.

You will be a part of a friendly and ambitious local authority with an approachable and inclusive leadership team.

As a new starter, you’ll have a welcoming induction specific to the service and will receive a Stockport Council corporate induction. You will also have access to a wide range of training and learning opportunities to support your development.

We offer a hybrid way of working with some home working and some flexibility around working hours. There will be an expectation to be office based for part of the week.

At Stockport Council we are one ambitious team on a mission to create opportunities for everyone who lives, works and spends time in the borough. Working at Stockport Council means contributing to one of the most thriving towns in the North. We’re keen to recruit people with the right values and behaviours that can help us ensure our workplace values are at the heart of everything we do.

We are proud to be recognised under the Good Employment Charter as an organisation committed to the wellbeing of our colleagues. As members of the charter, we have been recognised as a great place to work for all colleagues and pledge to pay the real living wage, engage staff in key decisions and endorse fair and flexible working conditions.

If you would like to find out more about the role please contact Mathew Finegan ([email protected]) or Eleanor Hirst ([email protected]) for an informal discussion about the role.

The successful applicant’s appointment will be subject to satisfactory pre-employment clearances including a Disclosure and Barring Service check.

Stockport Council holds a Visa sponsorship licence but this can only be used for certain roles and this campaign does not currently qualify.

Please note that we have made a commitment to improve the employment opportunities for people with disabilities, care leavers and ex-military personnel. As part of the Guaranteed Assessment Scheme you will therefore be guaranteed to be shortlisted for Assessment if you meet both the criteria for the scheme and the essential job role criteria.
