Our Purpose

North East Lincolnshire's Education Welfare Service is seeking to recruit an enthusiastic and committed Education Welfare Support Officer to offer invaluable guidance and support to schools and families in North East Lincolnshire.

Your Role

This is a varied role within a dedicated and supportive team. You will work with schools, families and professionals to provide information, advice and guidance on school attendance and supporting the best outcomes for young people and families. On a day-to-day basis you could be liaising with schools around the Borough to provide advice around attendance based on government guidance, Working Together to Improve School Attendance; discussing strategies to re-integrate a child into education with a worried parent; or using your attention to fine details to ensure that penalty notices are administered effectively. This is a multidisciplinary approach with professional colleagues within the local authority such as SEND and Children's Social Care, as well as other support agencies outside the authority. A commitment to quality service and building effective working relationships is essential. The role would also encompass licensing for those in the Borough who request a licence for Child Entertainment, Child Employment or Chaperones.

About You

Our ideal candidate will be able to demonstrate excellent communication and relationship-building skills, enabling them to support a variety of stakeholders. Financial literacy and a good eye for detail is essential.

The right candidate will be supported with all aspects of the role profile.
