Full job description

Who are we?

In return you will be offered an enhanced induction programme in a supportive environment with access to Kibble’s amazing training and development as well as the opportunity to attend external training. Most importantly you will play an important role in supporting children to have the stability, safety and love that they deserve.

To undertake any other reasonable tasks as requested by the Kibble Panel Chair or other senior member of staff in discharging the role of Kibble Panel member e.g. involvement in presentations to other agencies.
