Contract: Full-Time

In this role you’ll work alongside Community Assessment Officers and Occupational Therapists. You will work under the direct, supportive guidance of experienced Team Managers and Senior Practitioners who are committed to your professional growth and wellbeing.

Key Requirements
*Qualified Social Worker: Registered with Social Work England.
*Agile Thinker: Ability to pivot between rapid-response "Front Door" work and structured casework.
*Collaborator: A team player who values the input of OTs and partner agencies.
*Communicator: Capable of navigating sensitive conversations regarding safeguarding and crisis management with empathy and clarity.
