We are recruiting a Best Interest Assessor to our Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards team as a primary BIA. This is a great opportunity to join a small, friendly team whose focus is on undertaking BIA assessments in a thorough and timely manner in order to promote the rights and wellbeing of those we work with. We work innovatively to promote central themes of human rights based practice with an excellent understanding and application of the Mental Capacity Act throughout.
We offer excellent terms of service including hybrid working arrangements, a generous annual leave allowance and options for flexible working (where appropriate).
By working for Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council you will also have opportunities to progress your career by specialising in particular areas of practice, such as older people or learning disabilities, and with additional qualifications such as practice educator and AMHP. All primary BIA’s will be prioritised for AMCP conversion under LPS.
