- Identify safeguarding concerns and act confidently and appropriately
- Maintain accurate and confidential case records in line with service standards
- Contribute to community awareness and help more people feel able to access support
This role offers autonomy and responsibility. You will plan your own diary, manage competing priorities and use your professional judgement every day.
