Job Description

Free a Girl is seeking a qualified and licensed Social Worker to join its Thailand-based work within The Scientia Program. The Social Worker will play a key role in supporting the rescue, relief, and recovery of child victims of Online Sexual Exploitation of Children (OSEC), working closely with Thai child protection actors, law enforcement, shelters, hospitals, partner organizations, and the investigation team.

The Social Worker may support initial interviews when appropriate and in line with child protection standards. While the primary focus will be on Thailand-based cases, the role may also involve supporting regional cases or sharing expertise with teams in other countries when needed.

  • Liaise with shelters, hospitals, welfare services, and partner organizations
  • Maintain accurate case documentation, reports, and case notes
  • Ensure strict adherence to safeguarding and child protection standards
  • Contribute to national victim identification, referral, and support networks
