Children's social care

Join our Children's and Families service as a Bristol City Council social worker

We want Bristol to be a city of hope, where no one is left behind and everyone is treated fairly.

Social workers help us achieve this vision.

Join our team and help us make a difference to the lives of children and families across the city.

Bristol offers a wide range of opportunities for social workers, whether you are just starting your career, looking for a new challenge, or wanting to broaden your knowledge and expertise.

We offer a supportive and nurturing environment to help you evolve and make a positive change in our city.

We have increased our social work salaries to start from £37,336 after completion of ASYE and £47,420 for Senior Social Workers. We provide generous benefits, including a relocation package of up to £8,000, a local government pension scheme, 25 days annual leave and full membership to Research in Practice.
