About the Role

We are looking for dedicated Social Workers to join our Teams across Adult Social Care.  Are you passionate about social work?  Do you have the skills and experience to deliver in a busy social work team?  Do you enjoy helping others achieve their outcomes?  If so, you may be the perfect candidate for this role! As a Social Worker, you’ll play a vital role in supporting adults within our community. You’ll carry out comprehensive Social Care Needs Assessments, develop effective support plans, and coordinate services to meet individual needs. You’ll also manage risk effectively, including attending Multi-Agency Risk Assessment Meetings (MARAMs). Your role will involve safeguarding vulnerable adults, application of Mental Capacity Act (MCA) principles to support decision-making, handling legal aspects related to the protection of adults through the Court of Protection (CoP), ensuring compliance with Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS), and utilising the Decision Support Tool (DST) for Continuing Healthcare (CHC) assessments. This is a dynamic role that requires flexibility—you’ll work contracted hours within agreed rota patterns, which may include evenings and weekends. Our busy social work teams are passionate about working with adults, carers and partner agencies to achieve the best outcomes for those with care and support needs and their carers. You will need to hold a social work qualification and have a professional registration as a social worker with Social Work England.
