You will provide direct advice, support and training to a range of professionals and our cohort. There will be differences and complexities in situations so you will need to be creative and innovative to ensure the best next step is identified and taken. You will be managing information from different sources to ensure that information is up to date and readily available; responding to general enquires and providing specialist advice.There will always be ‘change ahead’ and in this you will be surrounded by creative and child centred colleagues.
