INTEGRATED SERVICES PROGRAMME (ISP) Part Time Fostering Advisor Salary: 22,300 - 23,900 per annum prorated Core Hours: 9am - 5pm 3 days per week (21 hours) Working Days: Negotiable Location: Office Based - Milton Keynes Benefits: 30 days' Annual Leave (increasing to 35 days with length of service) + Bank Holidays, Company Pension, Life Assurance, Employee Discount Scheme & Medical Cash (all benefits will be prorated) About Us Set up in 1987 by a small but passionate group of Foster Parents, we became the UK's first independent Foster Care agency. That gives us the benefit of over 30 years' of fostering experience and we're still going strong! The founder members recognised that looked after children - especially those who'd had very difficult starts in life - needed specialist support. So right from the beginning they put the child at the centre of their thinking and surrounded them with an integrated range of support services. In fact, that's what ISP means: Integrated Service Programme. Over time, this circle of support has increased to include a whole range of professionals that children and foster parents can tap into, whenever they need to.
