Our excellent longstanding relationship with this council means we are always on hand to provide ongoing support whenever you may need it, we want to do what’s right by you to ensure you are happy for the entirety of your time at work with us.

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