We are seeking a committed and qualified Social Worker to join an Assessment team, supporting children, adults and families to achieve positive outcomes. This is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference by completing high-quality assessments, identifying strengths and needs, and helping people access the right support at the right time.

You will manage a varied caseload and undertake proportionate, person-centred assessments in line with relevant legislation, policies and professional standards. Your responsibilities will include developing, reviewing and monitoring care and support plans; assessing risk; responding to safeguarding concerns; and coordinating services with individuals, families, carers and partner agencies.

Working collaboratively with health professionals, education services, housing providers, voluntary organisations and other colleagues, you will contribute to effective multidisciplinary planning. You will advocate for people’s rights and wishes, promote independence and wellbeing, and ensure that decisions are evidence-based, lawful and clearly recorded.

Newly qualified social workers with suitable placement experience may also be considered, subject to the requirements of the role.

We are looking for someone who communicates clearly, builds trusting professional relationships and can work confidently with people from diverse backgrounds. You should be organised, resilient and able to prioritise competing demands while maintaining accurate records and a strong focus on quality. A commitment to equality, inclusion, continuous learning and strengths-based practice is essential.

In return, you will receive professional support, regular supervision and opportunities to develop your skills within a welcoming and collaborative service. If you are passionate about enabling people to live safely, independently and with dignity, we would be pleased to hear from you.
