Job description

Manageable Caseload | Lower Tax | Beautiful Location | Slower Pace of Life | Disabilities Team

£3k relocation

Social Worker from £62k

Have you got to the stage where you just want something different? Perhaps your children have finally flown the nest, or you’re fed up with the English weather…maybe just fancy an adventure?

If you are an experienced social worker who has a particular interest in working with Children with Disabilities, we are currently helping a local authority in the Channel islands recruit permanent staff to their teams. The team is a specialist support service for children and families dealing with various 'complex needs' or disabilities - therefore a strong grasp on packages of care and experience working with similar clients is preferable.

The authority is going through a period of strategic change, with senior management who are dedicated to making huge improvements to a service that has acknowledged their previous failings and pledged to make a difference to the children and families under their care.

Not unlike the mainland they have referral and assessment, safeguarding, looked after children and fostering teams…they even have a new non case holding specialist edge of care team.

The islands are known for their massive tax benefits, beautiful scenery, and slow pace of life. If this sounds like something you could enjoy; along with the chance to have a huge impact on their children’s services then reach out to find out more.

As this is a statutory role, you do require a social work qualification & registration to Social Work England.
