Key responsibilities will include:

• Safeguard and promote the welfare of children and young people in line with statutory processes.
• Co-produce with families and professionals, ensuring views, wishes and aspirations are central to assessment, planning and review.

• Produce structured reports and case summaries to support panels, tribunals and service planning.
• Attend person-centred planning/review meetings and contribute to multi-agency decision-making.
• Maintain accurate records, tracking and monitoring, escalating issues where needed.
• Represent the local authority in dispute resolution activity (including mediation for EHCNA decisions not to assess or issue a plan).
• Work collaboratively across the SEND and Inclusion service, contributing to improvement initiatives and best practice.

About You:
You will have strong working knowledge of SEND statutory processes and EHCP practice, with the ability to interpret and reconcile complex information from multiple sources. You’ll be confident communicating with families, SENCOs and multi-agency partners, producing accurate, evidence-based documentation to tight timescales.

You will be able to demonstrate:

• A commitment to inclusive, person-centred practice and safeguarding.
• Strong analytical skills and attention to detail when drafting EHCPs and supporting documentation.
