We have a rich history of welcoming people from all over the world and are proud to be recognised as the UK’s first Borough of Sanctuary, for our work in championing the rights of refugees and migrants.

Introduction

Discover yourself in Lewisham where what you do makes a difference to our vibrant and culturally diverse communities!

We have a great opportunity for an Independent Panel member to join our Fostering Panel.

The Fostering Panel makes recommendations on who is suitable to care for vulnerable children. We hold two panels a month and the successful candidate will be placed on a rota along with other panel members.

What’s the role?

As an Independent Fostering Panel Member, you do not need experience of sitting on Fostering Panels as long as you have transferable skills, including the ability to respectfully challenge others when needed and to be child focused. This opportunity is open to external applicants only. Internal applicants are not eligible to apply, as the panel member role is required to be independent.

You will be required to read panel reports and be prepared to raise issues and to contribute to the panel discussions. You will participate in the making of recommendations on each case, drawing on your personal knowledge and experience. You will be required to participate with other panel members in advising on Fostering policy and procedural matters as required and to follow confidentiality requirements in relation to both paperwork and discussions.

What’s in it for you?

Excellent training and development opportunities, plus a range of benefits including:

Excellent training. The Lewisham Fostering Service provide Panel Members with induction training and relevant information regarding preparation for panel membership and supports them in their task; including updates on relevant legislation, agency policy and practice guidance.
Supportive staff networks
The opportunity to make a real difference to our local community.

What we’re looking for

The ideal candidate will have an excellent standard of spoken and written English and be able to read complex reports and draw questions and conclusions from them effectively and efficiently.

Good listening and communication skills are essential for this role as is the ability to use personal and/or professional knowledge and experience to contribute to discussions and decision-making in a balanced and informed manner.

Location

All panels take place in person and are held at 45 Bromley Road, Catford, SE6 2UA.

Special conditions

Care experienced individual
If you feel ready for a change and are able to take on new challenges in a progressive organization, we want to hear from you.
This opportunity is open to external applicants only. Internal applicants are not eligible to apply, as the panel member role is required to be independent.
