Oxfordshire County Councils Children, Educational and Families Directorate continual drive for innovation has developed these exciting new roles, as part of the government-led Families First Partnership Programme, which is focused on supporting parents and families. This exciting role will be part of a multi-disciplinary Clinical Team, positioned within Childrens Social Care, and led by a Consultant Clinical Psychologist.

Oxfordshire County Council offers very generous work conditions, and this is a team with a strong value base who will fully support you. We want people in our team to thrive in what they do, so they can be the best professionals supporting the children and families we work with.

We are a creative, dynamic, caring, and reflective team that value diversity, ideas, and contributions which each member of our team brings. This is reflected in the supportive structure of the team with plenty of opportunities to share evidence-based learning, develop new ideas, share learning from our clinical experience and a variety of spaces for reflection and professional growth.

We continue to learn from the services and teams we support alongside the experiences of children, young people and families to continually shape and develop the service and our clinical offers. As a team and across social care, we work with children, young people and families with diverse needs and cultural experiences, and we hope to reflect and value this diversity as a Clinical Team.

No two days as a psychological family practitioner are quite the same. Youll work alongside parents and families at an important point in their lives, where your support aims to strengthen relationships and improve wellbeing. Your day will consist of visiting parents, using therapeutic and relationship-based approaches to explore their experiences, strengthen their confidence and help them reflect on their wellbeing, their parenting and their childrens needs. You might work together on emotional regulation, relationships, or understanding how past experiences can influence family life today. You may also provide more practical, hands-on support helping a family establish routines, attending an appointment alongside a parent, connecting them with community resources or working together to overcome barriers that might lead to break down in family relationships or children coming into or at risk of coming into care. Whilst the main focus is on supporting the parents, time may also be spent with a parent and child together, supporting them to strengthen their relationship, practice new ways of responding to difficult moments and build positive experiences together.

At other times, you may meet with a social worker or other professionals to share progress, think collaboratively about what a family needs. Throughout your work, youll have the opportunity to build meaningful and trusted relationships with families, recognise and develop their strengths and support parents to make changes that can last beyond professional involvement. Its a role that combines therapeutic thinking with practical action. Youll need warmth, curiosity and creativity, alongside the confidence to have difficult conversations and offer appropriate challenge when needed. At the heart of each day is the same goal: supporting families to create safe, stable and nurturing relationships in which children can thrive.

This post is currently funded until the end of March 2028 as part of the government-led Families First Partnership Programme.Rewards and benefits

• Relocation allowance of up to £8,000 for eligible roles.

Over the past seven years we have quadrupled in numbers, developed very interesting tools, written a residential model, published papers and worked closely with colleagues in Europe. Oxfordshire County Councils Children, Educational and Families Directorate continual drive for innovation has developed these exciting new roles, as part of the government-led Families First Partnership Programme, which is focused on supporting parents and families. This exciting role will be part of a multi-disciplinary Clinical Team, positioned within Childrens Social Care, and led by a Consultant Clinical Psychologist.Oxfordshire County Council offers very generous work conditions, and this is a team with a strong value base who will fully support you. We want people in our team to thrive in what they do, so they can be the best professionals supporting the children and families we work with. We are a creative, dynamic, caring, and reflective team that value diversity, ideas, and contributions which each member of our team brings. This is reflected in the supportive structure of the team with plenty of opportunities to share evidence-based learning, develop new ideas, share learning from our clinical experience and a variety of spaces for reflection and professional growth. At our core, we are a team who think, reflect and work systemically through a trauma-informed lens, while drawing on a wide range of evidence-based interventions to inform and guide our work with children, young people and families across Oxfordshire. We continue to learn from the services and teams we support alongside the experiences of children, young people and families to continually shape and develop the service and our clinical offers. As a team and across social care, we work with children, young people and families with diverse needs and cultural experiences, and we hope to reflect and value this diversity as a Clinical Team.

Youll work alongside parents and families at an important point in their lives, where your support aims to strengthen relationships and improve wellbeing. Your day will consist of visiting parents, using therapeutic and relationship-based approaches to explore their experiences, strengthen their confidence and help them reflect on their wellbeing, their parenting and their childrens needs. You might work together on emotional regulation, relationships, or understanding how past experiences can influence family life today. You may also provide more practical, hands-on support helping a family establish routines, attending an appointment alongside a parent, connecting them with community resources or working together to overcome barriers that might lead to break down in family relationships or children coming into or at risk of coming into care. Whilst the main focus is on supporting the parents, time may also be spent with a parent and child together, supporting them to strengthen their relationship, practice new ways of responding to difficult moments and build positive experiences together.At other times, you may meet with a social worker or other professionals to share progress, think collaboratively about what a family needs. Throughout your work, youll have the opportunity to build meaningful and trusted relationships with families, recognise and develop their strengths and support parents to make changes that can last beyond professional involvement. Its a role that combines therapeutic thinking with practical action. Youll need warmth, curiosity and creativity, alongside the confidence to have difficult conversations and offer appropriate challenge when needed. At the heart of each day is the same goal: supporting families to create safe, stable and nurturing relationships in which children can thrive.This post is currently funded until the end of March 2028 as part of the government-led Families First Partnership Programme.Rewards and benefits Relocation allowance of up to £8,000 for eligible roles.
