Case Management Worker Full Time

Job Description

An opportunity has arisen with Neighbourhoods, Regeneration and Sustainability’s Early and Effective Intervention team for a Case Management Worker to join our team on a permanent basis.

Position Details

Early and Effective Intervention (EEI) is a national framework for working with young people of 8 – 17 years who have been involved in offending behaviour.

Its purpose is to divert these young people away from statutory measures, where appropriate, and respond to the charge in a timely manner. This means that children and young people who have committed offences (with the exception of those who have committed offences of a serious nature) will be diverted from referral to the Scottish Children’s Reporter Administration (SCRA) and referred to the EEI process.

EEI is about partnership and focuses on multi-agency working. We coordinate the multi-agency process for EEI, which includes Education, Social Work, Police Scotland, Glasgow Life and the Third Sector, to get the best possible outcome for young people.

Our Case Management Workers are responsible for the effective case management of vulnerable people and people at risk of offending, through support, development, and implementation of the Council’s integrated case management process. The successful candidate will be responsible for a geographical area of the city, building up partnerships and knowledge of available services within that area.

The work pattern for the post is 35-hours per week worked Monday – Friday, 9am – 5pm. The annual salary is on an incremental scale starting at £33,047.49 and progressing to £39,916.53.

The position requires membership to the Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme (Vulnerable Adults & Children). For further information on this scheme, please visit https://www.mygov.scot/working-jobs/finding-a-job/disclosure/. The cost of membership, or scheme record update, will be met by the candidate.

This post is exempt from the provisions of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exclusions and Exceptions) (Scotland) Amendment Order 2015. A full list of convictions that must always be disclosed and convictions that should be disclosed subject to rules is available on the Disclosure Scotland website: www.disclosurescotland.co.uk.
