About the Role

Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council is seeking an experienced Senior Social Worker to join our well-established Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH) on a part-time basis. This is an excellent opportunity to work within a highly supportive and collaborative safeguarding environment where children and families receive the right help at the right time.

Rate: £30.57 per hour (Umbrella)

As a Senior Social Worker within MASH, you will play a key role in ensuring effective safeguarding arrangements for children and young people by working closely with partner agencies and making timely, informed decisions.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Screening and reviewing incoming referrals
  • Applying threshold guidance effectively to ensure appropriate interventions
  • Making timely decisions within MASH timescales
  • Contributing to multi-agency safeguarding processes and decision-making
  • Attending and contributing to strategy discussions
  • Presenting information clearly and professionally to partner agencies
  • Working collaboratively with colleagues and external partners to deliver an effective service
  • Maintaining high-quality written assessments and records

Social Workers within MASH are line managed by a dedicated MASH Team Lead, ensuring strong support and oversight.

Experience

  • Qualified Social Worker status and Social Work England registration
  • Significant post-qualified experience within Children's Services
  • Previous MASH experience (essential)
  • Excellent knowledge and application of safeguarding thresholds
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • The ability to work effectively in a fast-paced environment
  • Experience of multi-agency working and safeguarding decision-making

Solihull operates a hybrid working model with social workers typically working:

  • One day in the office
  • One day from home

Due to the part-time nature of this role, this would generally mean:

  • One week: 2 days office-based
  • Following week: 1 day office-based

Why Join Solihull?

  • Be part of a strong and established multi-agency safeguarding team
  • Work collaboratively with partners across Police, Health and Education
  • Contribute to safeguarding decisions that make a real difference to children and families
  • Benefit from supportive management and a positive team culture
  • Join a local authority committed to high-quality practice and continuous improvement

This role is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975. As this role is eligible for an Enhanced DBS check, applicants are required to declare any cautions and convictions that are not protected under current filtering rules.

If successful, candidates will be required to provide information to support the Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council's commitment to the prevention and detection of fraud. This information will be processed by the Council's Internal Audit Services and may be shared with the National Fraud Initiative (NFI) for data matching

If you are an experienced MASH Social Worker looking for a flexible part-time opportunity within a supportive local authority, we'd love to hear from you.
