Do you want to join a dedicated team working to change the lives of kinship carers across Staffordshire? This is an exciting and ambitious role supporting the launch of a brand-new local authority-funded contract.
About Kinship
We are Kinship. The leading kinship care charity in England and Wales. We’re here for kinship carers – friends or family who step up to raise a child when their parents aren’t able to.
Together, let’s commit to change for kinship families.
About the Role
Kinship is the leading kinship care charity in England and Wales. We work with all kinship carers – the grandparents, siblings, aunts, uncles and family friends who step up to raise children when their parents can’t.
We’re excited to be launching Kinship Reach in Staffordshire, a completely new contract that will extend our trusted support to many more kinship families. Reach is delivered entirely online, offering tailored one-to-one and group support that is flexible, accessible and rooted in kinship carers’ lived experience.
As a Kinship Family Worker, you will be responsible for delivering high-quality support through a digital model that fits around carers’ lives. You will:
-
Complete online family assessments and develop tailored support plans.
-
Provide emotional and practical support over a structured intervention period.
-
Run online group sessions that build connection, confidence and community.
-
Help carers access wider services and community assets in Staffordshire and beyond.
-
Work closely with our partners in Staffordshire to ensure families receive the right support at the right time.
This is a fantastic opportunity to shape a new, forward-thinking service, helping us bring accessible, digital support to kinship carers in a county committed to improving outcomes for children and young people.
What we’ll offer you
Kinship offers 30 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays (pro-rata for part-time). We have an excellent wellbeing offer including the Employee Assistance Programme and clinical supervision. We will invest in your professional development with training and career development opportunities.
Kinship is committed to championing equality, diversity and inclusion. We believe our work is greatly enhanced by the varied backgrounds, experiences and views represented within our teams. We aim to create inclusive teams, celebrate differences and encourage everyone to join us and be their true self at work. We therefore encourage applications from anyone who fits our values, whatever their religion or belief, sex, gender identity, race, age, sexuality or disability and are actively seeking candidates that can bring real innovation and commitment to us.
