Support Worker Hoddesdon

Job Title: Hertfordshire Keyworker Offer Starting Salary: £38,220 progressing to £41,771 pa per annum (pro rata for part time) Hours: 37.0 (Min 30 hours or job share considered) Location: Office bases in Stevenage and Apsley with travel Countywide Contract Type: Permanent Directorate: Childrens Services<h4>About the team</h4>Hertfordshire’s Keyworker Offer are pleased to be able to recruit a Learning Disability and Autism (LDA) Keyworker to join the first approved and established keyworker offer, joining an award-winning team of innovative practitioners.We offer personalised, informed-consent approaches, to children, young people, and young adults up to age 25, who are on Hertfordshire’s Dynamic Support Register, due to being deemed at risk of an admission to a mental health hospital or already in a mental health hospital.Keyworkers are not led by statutory duties but of course work within the statutory system. We have time to build relationships with those who may be described as ‘disengaged.’ The child, young person, or adult, may be in crisis and as such will need a unique and personalised approach to enable them to make progress.The keyworker role is dynamic, personalised, and led by the goals of the matched child, young person, or adult. We walk alongside the child, young person, or adult, and always aim to ‘do with, and not to.’<h4>About the role</h4>Keyworkers plan their own weekly diaries and visits, and co-produce ideas and approaches with children and young people, working alongside a range of social care, health, and education professionals, to bring those who we work with ‘into the room.’ No day is the same, and you will have matched children, young people, and adults, some of which you will see at the same time every week or fortnight, others whenever you are able. The journey with all the children, young people, and adults is unique, as you walk alongside them to gather a better understanding of individual needs. Although we are not a crisis team, we are dynamic and responsive. Having the skill to build trust with our children, young people, and adults, is key to the role as you will often find yourself lone-working and flexing to meet the needs of the individual.
