X2 Family Practitioner

About the Team:

Nuneaton and Bedworth Family Help Team are looking for an experienced and dedicated family support worker looking to make a difference.

Our Family Help Team is a dynamic, committed and welcoming service, working alongside families at every stage of need. From early targeted support, through Children in Need, Edge of Care, Child Protection and Court work; we also support children in care until a clear plan for reunification or permanency is secured. This breadth of work makes our team varied, challenging and extremely rewarding.

We are proud to be a truly multi‑disciplinary team, bringing together Family Support Workers, Family Practitioners, Social Workers, Systemic Consultants, PCSOs and, soon, an NHS Nurse. By working collaboratively under one team, we are able to respond to families’ needs holistically, reduce risk and focus on what matters most – keeping families safely together wherever possible.

Our practice is firmly grounded in Restorative Principles. We work with families, supporting them to identify their strengths, understand challenges and create meaningful, achievable plans for positive change. Every family is supported to develop a plan that is individual to them and builds on their own capacity to achieve lasting outcomes. You’ll be joining a team that is ambitious for children and families, open to innovation and committed to reflective, relationship‑based practice.

We actively support learning and development, providing a nurturing environment where practitioners are encouraged to grow, share ideas and develop their confidence and skills.

If you are passionate about achieving the best outcomes for children and families, enjoy working as part of a supportive multi‑agency team, and want to be part of a service that values new ways of working and professional development, we would love to hear from you.

Now is an exciting time to be a part of our team as Warwickshire has been chosen as one of the seven areas to deliver the Families First for Children Pathfinder Programme. Join us to help shape and influence the future of children's social care together.

Nuneaton and Bedworth Family Help A are recruiting to 2 full‑time Family Practitioner positions. One within the Duty & Assessment pod, the other within the Support & Intervention pod.

In this role, you will work directly with families in their homes and community settings, providing practical and emotional support as part of a multi‑agency team. You will deliver evidence‑based interventions, help parents strengthen their confidence and skills, and ensure the voice of the child remains central to all planning and decision‑making.

Your responsibilities will include managing a caseload, contributing to assessments and support plans, delivering targeted 1:1 and group work, and helping to coordinate multi‑agency activity to keep children safe. You will also play an important part in preventing family breakdown by offering early help, parenting guidance, and proactive support.

You will need to be confident working independently, resilient under pressure, and committed to anti‑discriminatory practice. A driving licence and ability to travel across the county are essential.

If you are passionate about empowering families, creating meaningful change, and supporting children to thrive, we would love to hear from you.
