Full job description

Contract Type: Permanent

Salary: Grade F. Scale 17 - £31,022 to Scale 22 - £33,699

Hours Per Week: 36

Base Location: Tameside Police Station, Ashton under Lyne, Ol7 0BQ

Assessment Date: To be arranged

Are you passionate about making a real difference in the lives of children and families? Do you bring compassion, curiosity, collaboration, conversation, and courage to your practice? If so, Tameside is looking for you.

The Role

Tameside’s Missing from Home Service is seeking a committed and motivated Intervention Worker to join our dynamic, multi-agency team. Working alongside Greater Manchester Police and the Complex Safeguarding Team, you will play a key role in safeguarding children who go missing from home or care and are at increased risk of harm, including exploitation.

This is a rewarding and fast-paced role where you will build meaningful relationships with young people and families, contribute to early intervention and prevention, and support improved outcomes for vulnerable children.

About You

In this role, you will deliver timely, trauma-informed and child-centred Return Home Interviews, enabling children and young people to share their experiences and have their voices heard. You will identify and analyse the push and pull factors contributing to missing episodes, assess risk, and inform safeguarding planning.

You will work collaboratively with partner agencies, including attending multi-agency meetings and risk management forums, to support coordinated safeguarding responses. A key aspect of the role includes the accurate recording of information, maintaining high-quality case records, and the timely sharing of intelligence and safeguarding concerns with relevant professionals to reduce risk and prevent repeat missing episodes.

About Us

Message from Jill Colbert, Director of Children’s Services

“I joined the council at the beginning of 2025 and was instantly charmed by the warmth, openness, and energy of colleagues.

“I came to Tameside for one reason; because I know we can do fantastic things for our families here.

“We’re a children’s service on a significant improvement journey. We know what needs to be different for our children and families and we’re ambitious to deliver that change.

“We have a growing range of specialist services for children, where you can test and grow your skills and practice. We have a Social Work Academy that is led by people who bring passion to learning and who know that the DCS’ of the future are right in front of them. We are working on our progression pathways so that staying in Tameside is rewarded and recognised. We have investment in innovation and improvement from the council so that we can grow services and support for families that we can sustain, from family hubs through to complex safeguarding.

“I am so certain that we can build a proud, inclusive and safe climate for great practice to flourish in Tameside. I’d love you to join me on the journey here at Team Tameside.”
