• Work collaboratively within a multi-disciplinary team to enhance outcomes for children subject to Child Protection Plans and Pre-Care Proceedings.
• Liaise with key agencies, including Education, to ensure integrated care.
• Contribute to the development of evidence-based practice and improvement initiatives within the service.
