Delivering high quality, evidence based services, shaped by the children & families who use them and delivered by a highly skilled workforce, is at the heart of Oxfordshire's vision for children & families. We want all our children to feel safe and secure and for them and their families to have high aspirations and achieve good outcomes. If you share these objectives, then this opportunity is for you.
Your key responsibility will be to lead a number of children's social care teams - assessment, family support and looked after - in southern Oxfordshire. You will promote the development of integrated children’s services working in partnership with other agencies and be accountable for performance and practice standards.
Extensive experience of child protection, children in need and looked after children at practice and management level, detailed knowledge of childcare legislation and a track record of leading and managing change in a large organisation is essential
