Children Services Practitioner Level 3

Could you help shape brighter futures for children and families across the North West?

We're looking for a Social Work qualified Children's Services Practitioner to join our passionate team at the NSPCC's North West regional hub in Liverpool. This is a full time role (35 hours/week)

In this role, you'll work directly with children, families, and communities-delivering impactful preventative and intervention services, building partnerships, and helping shape safer environments for young people. You'll also contribute to service development, evaluation, and local campaigns as part of our 10-year strategy to end cruelty to children.

What makes this opportunity unique?

• Want to develop specialist skills in preventative services?
• Interested in both child and adult-facing work through one to one and group delivery?
• Keen to be part of a team that values learning, collaboration, and innovation?

Our current services include:

• Letting the Future In (LTFI) - enabling children and families to recover from the impact of child sexual abuse and strengthen local multi agency responses to this issue across the region.
• Pregnancy in Mind (PiM) - a preventative mental health service that helps support expectant parents who have or are at risk of mild to moderate anxiety or depression.
• Baby Steps - empowering parents to build confidence and feel ready for the arrival of their new baby.
• Domestic Abuse Recovering Together (DART) - a group work programme that helps children and mothers get back on track after experiencing domestic abuse.

What we're looking for:

• A recognised social work qualification and UK registration.
• Experience working directly with children and families.
• Strong understanding of child protection and safeguarding.

What you'll get:

• A manageable caseload and excellent supervision.
• Annual salary reviews and generous leave (29 days + bank holidays, if you work full time, after 5 years this increases to 32 days!)
• Pension contributions matched up to 7 %.
• Access to wellbeing resources and over 3,000 discounts via our online portal.

We welcome applications from all backgrounds and are committed to fostering a respectful, inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive.

Why join the NSPCC?

Any one of our people will tell you that a huge reward in itself is making a difference to children's lives. But we know it's a competitive world, and it's important to feel valued in your role and receive more practical, tangible benefits. We offer salaries that are at least comparable with the top charities in the UK, as well as these benefits.

• Generous annual leave - 29 days per annum plus bank holidays for full time employees (pro rata for part time). 32 days per annum after five years' continuous service.
• Employee discounts - our discounts portal gives you online access to over 3,000 discounts and offers.
• The Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) - an independent, free, personal support service. It can provide information, support and advice to support your health and wellbeing.
• Pension - building up a good pension is something we want to help you achieve with our flexible, tax efficient pension schemes.
• Life assurance scheme - all employees will be given life assurance of one times their salary, unless they join the NSPCC Group Personal Pension Scheme, where members are given life assurance of five times their salary.
