If you're organised, confident with administrative casework, and motivated by safeguarding outcomes, this is a great opportunity to join a trusted safeguarding organisation. In this role, you'll support the investigation process for non-complex concerns-helping ensure actions are taken promptly, records stay accurate, and the right parties are contacted when decisions are reached.

• Support the progression of de-escalated investigations through to closure, working from your own caseload
• Review incoming concerns to help determine whether they're valid and suitable for investigation
• Help ensure the correct action is taken where jurisdiction applies, and signpost safeguarding concerns where it doesn't
• Complete administrative tasks including case reviews, report writing (e.g., PG reports), and case closure updates
• Maintain accurate records on the database and work list tool, keeping all actions and outcomes up to date
• Monitor the central team inbox and post tray-saving correspondence correctly and responding to general queries
• Make phone calls when required to obtain information from relevant parties (e.g., concern raisers, local authorities, attorneys)
• Send out closure letters and any required referrals to appropriate third parties

• Strong attention to detail and an ability to handle information accurately from multiple sources
• Confident prioritisation skills-able to manage workload to meet objectives and deadlines
• Clear written communication and professional telephone manner, with accurate attendance notes
• Ability to deal with people at all levels via email and phone
• Flexibility and calm focus as case needs and priorities change
• Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office and confidence working with internal systems
• Commitment to compliance, data security, and maintaining high-quality records

• Initial training will be office based in Nottingham for the first 3 months, with the possibility of hybrid working thereafter
