To help us achieve our mission, we are recruiting a qualified social worker with direct experience of working with children and families, and knowledge and experience of supporting social work students.
A little bit about the role
Practice Tutors (PTs) play a key role within the development and delivery of our social work curriculum, contributing knowledge and expertise to create a culture that promotes outstanding social work education. PTs are responsible for teaching and developing participants at the Readiness to Practice stage, regional teaching days and, in participant hubs within local authorities.
PTs support four practice hubs, based within statutory children’s social care services. Each practice hub is led by a Consultant Social Worker (CSW). Core to the Practice Tutor role is the ability to provide support, challenge and guidance to participants and CSWs to ensure a high-quality practice learning experience
This role provides the opportunity to genuinely align practice and theory. In doing so you need to be committed to evidence informed practice models and have an appetite to exploring different and innovative approaches to teaching these models
A little bit about you
We are looking for someone who can contribute to the delivery of teaching across the year, support participants in their local authority hubs, support participants during the 2nd year of Approach Social Work and become their dissertation supervisor during the 3rd year of the programme.
We are looking for someone with:

- Excellent social work practice skills
- Experience of developing others and a commitment to educating a new generation of social workers.
If this sounds like you, then we'd love to hear from you!
We welcome applications from individuals interested in undertaking this role on an external secondment basis and are open to discussing arrangements with applicants and their current employer.
Important information
We have increased the diversity of Frontline’s workforce in the last 12 months, but we need to do more to have greater global majority representation in our senior roles. We know the value global majority voices bring and therefore, we are strongly encouraging applicants from these backgrounds to apply. We are also a disability confident employer and welcome applicants with disabilities.
With so many people now using AI to apply for jobs, it is common for applications to be repetitive and nearly identical. There are tell-tale signs when AI has been used, the writing has the same structure, the same tone and the same language. Using AI to clarify your thoughts and sharpen your answers is one thing, but we strongly discourage you from using a tool to generate the substance of your answers. We want your application to demonstrate your skills, as well as show us your thought process, how you respond to problems, what you have learned from different experiences and how you communicate in your own voice. Please be reassured – we are not expecting perfection.
