At Leaders in Care, we also offer an exclusive loyalty bonus as part of your rate, recognising the dedication and expertise you bring to the role.

We’ve partnered with this authority for some time and can confidently say they value their team, offering stability, growth, and a genuinely supportive working culture - something not always found in agency management positions.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide leadership and professional oversight to AMHPs and social work staff, ensuring practice aligns with the Care Act, Mental Health Act, and local policy.

• Support the effective management of complex cases, offering guidance on assessment, care planning, and safeguarding.

• Lead on case management quality assurance, promoting reflective practice and continuous improvement across the team.

• Work collaboratively with internal and external partners to ensure smooth service delivery and effective inter-agency coordination.

• Contribute to service development, helping shape policy, process, and practice standards within the AMHP and wider mental health service.

What We Offer

• Competitive rates supported by a trusted payroll and timesheet system, with weekly payments.

• Regular check-ins and ongoing support from a dedicated consultant throughout your placement.

• A service recognised with over 500 5-star Google reviews for excellence in supporting social care professionals.

• A collaborative, knowledgeable leadership team that values shared learning and professional growth.

Requirements

• Qualified Social Worker with current SWE registration.

• Proven experience in AMHP practice and/or management within adult social care or mental health services.

• Strong understanding of the Care Act 2014, Mental Health Act 1983, and relevant safeguarding frameworks.

• Demonstrated leadership skills with the ability to support, motivate, and develop staff.
