About us
The right team
Doing the best for the children of Kent is a team effort and we’ve worked hard to create a culture that fosters excellence and collaboration – a place where social workers are empowered to be creative, share ideas and advice.
The right team needs the right managers. Ours have a well-deserved reputation for being supportive through regular, quality supervision.&nbsp;We also have a number of credible expert practitioners to learn from and you will find them approachable and keen to help. Sharing knowledge is part of who we are. Together, our teams deliver strengthened services and improved outcomes for children.
An integral part of re-thinking the way we work remotely is support for YOU going forward. Here you'll find the assistance, guidance and training available for all colleagues and managers to enable you to make flexible working work for you, your team and your service.

There will be new challenges and opportunities with case work and as part of the wider organisation, e.g., developing specialist links with partner agencies and representing Children’s Services in court.
Acting as a role model and mentor to less experienced colleagues, you will contribute to training initiatives, and, proactively maintaining your awareness of changes in child development theories, legislation, policies and practices, you will share your knowledge and uphold high standards of social work.
Transport
Whilst we foster a hybrid working approach, the role requires you to be mobile throughout a wide operational area including travelling around the county of Kent and beyond to transport children and their belongings and be available to do so in an emergency.&nbsp;
This role is subject to holding a Full UK Driving Licence – The Council is committed to making reasonable adjustments so whilst this job requires the jobholder to drive your application will still be considered if you are unable to drive due to a disability.

Brighter Futures for Children
About us Brighter Futures for Children is a not-for-profit company, owned by, but independent of, Reading Borough Council. Although we are independent, we are very much part of the Reading Family. Our people enjoy all of benefits as other Council employees including membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme and continuous service. We work closely with partners in the local community and key organisations including Reading Borough Council, policy, public health and voluntary groups. We are responsible for the delivery of children’s social care, early help &amp; prevention, education services (including SEND). This also includes fostering and adoption, the Youth Offending Service and traded services with schools.
Our main aim is to protect and enhance the lives of the children of Reading. We help families find long-term solutions to ensure children lead happy, healthy and successful lives.
About the Team/role We have an exciting opportunity for you to join our well established team as a Primary Mental Health Worker. Our Primary Mental Health Team (PMHT) in Reading was set up in 2008 to offer early intervention for children and young people who are at risk of developing serious mental health problems. Since then, we have further evolved and are now essential in filling a gap between early intervention Mental Health Support Teams (MHSTs) and more specialist Getting More Help (CAMHS) services.
We are a diverse and experienced team of practitioners with a range of evidence informed therapeutic backgrounds. Our team is integrated with the strong, established, and stable Educational Psychology Service (EPS), led by the Acting Principal Educational Psychologist.
We provide psychological therapies in schools and colleges and include systemic ways of working with children aged 5-18. We work within the Thrive model and have close relationships with the wider mental health teams as well as the social work, family, and youth work teams within Brighter Futures for Children. We ensure that children receive support at the Getting Help level, therefore preventing escalation to higher services, and we are proud to make a difference in children’s lives. We offer therapeutic interventions that are impactful and that lead to significant changes.
Our Primary Mental Health Team is also an integral part of the School Links Project which provides regular mental health surgeries within schools.
Our team also offers a range of relevant mental health training to parents and professionals to increase mental health awareness and preventative strategies.
This is an exciting time to join our team as we are involved in new developments within the wider service. We are co-developing a specialist therapeutic fostering service to ensure our cared for (CLA) Reading children stay closer to home, with foster carers who are individually supported to provide for their needs and life experiences. We are also working on a new emotional health triage system, which will have Primary Mental health at its heart. This will ensure that Reading’s children and families receive a coordinated partnership emotional health offer, to support children to access the right help at the right time. If you want to be part of a service working in real partnership with others, transforming the system to improve outcomes for children and applying regional and national best practice, we’d love to hear from you. Our team is a very stable team, we work in a supportive environment and value our team members. We are looking for a qualified person to join our team as one of us is leaving for early retirement.
Essential Qualification/Experience: A recognised therapeutic qualification and a minimum of three years’ experience post qualifying.
We would additionally prefer candidates who have a core qualification, are registered with a professional body, and/or have many years of relevant therapeutic experience.
Candidates with applied knowledge of CBT, and therapeutic fostering would have an advantage.
Our Offer: We offer a supportive environment to grow and develop your career with the opportunity to be creative and focus on collaborative interventions that make a difference in children’s lives. We are innovative, child focussed, supportive, friendly, collaborative, and values driven. We have high expectations for our children and young people and work in a relationship-based, child-centred manner to achieve the greatest impact in children’s lives.
A competitive salary, alongside a range of benefits including: • Local Government Pension Scheme • Relocation Scheme • 26 days’ holiday plus public holidays (rising to 33 after 10 years’ service) • Discounted Childcare (on site nursery) • Cycle to work scheme. • Season ticket loans. • A range of local discounts • Free parking • Salary sacrifice car lease scheme
Inclusion and Diversity We want Brighter Futures for Children to be a great place to work and to ensure that our children, young people and families are represented in leadership roles and positions of power. A vital part of this is ensuring we are a truly inclusive organisation that encourages diversity in all respects, including diversity of thinking.
We particularly welcome applications from Black, Asian and those of Other Ethnicities, LGBT+, disabled and neurodiverse communities to make a real difference to our children, young people and families so that equalities and justice remains at the heart of everything we do.
Asking for Adjustments Brighter Futures for Children is committed to making our recruitment practices barrier-free and as accessible as possible for everyone. This includes making adjustments or changes for disabled people, neurodiverse people or people with long-term health conditions. If you would like us to do anything differently during the application, interview or assessment process, including providing information in an alternative format, please let us know.
Closing date: Sunday 31st September 2025 Interview date: Tuesday 23rd September 2025 Interview type: Face to face at The Civic Office, Bridge Street, Reading, RG1 2LU
