This is an opportunity to join a well-established local authority in a stunning county location, where manageable caseloads, supportive leadership, and flexible working are the norm - not the exception.
You’ll be part of a collaborative Children & Families team working within the Family Safeguarding Model to protect children, empower families, and deliver lasting positive outcomes.
Why This Role Stands Out

- Expenses covered
- This authority understands that supported social workers deliver better outcomes.
The Role As a Senior Social Worker, you will
- Assess risk and develop robust child protection plans

- Work directly with children, young people, and families to reduce risk
- Collaborate with multi-agency professionals to ensure best outcomes
