Contractual Status

Fixed term for 24 months
The East and West Locality Social Work Teams cover the whole of the Middlesbrough area. The service promotes flexible working for all staff. This includes agile working at home as well as other Middlesbrough Council bases.

The Locality Teams are expanding and therefore several exciting opportunities have arisen for qualified social workers.

We are currently seeking to recruit experienced or newly qualified Social Workers to join us as we add to our current workforce.

We work with vulnerable adults over 18 who have a diverse range of short and long-term needs. Applicants with an interest in supporting people experiencing substance and alcohol use, domestic abuse and homelessness may find this particularly interesting along with supporting people who are on the Autistic Spectrum and people who need support with their physical and mental health.

Due to the varied nature of the team, we are therefore looking for Social Workers who are adaptable and are able to work with a varied caseload.

Middlesbrough Council is an exciting and rewarding place to work. We have strong Council Values that underpin every aspect of the council and the services we provide.

Middlesbrough is passionate about improving the lives of all of its residents and are working hard to deliver bespoke services to meet the change in demand. We are seeking to recruit Social Workers committed to providing a high quality service, be effective in meeting need and can ensure they represent the council’s values in order to provide a positive customer experience.

Middlesbrough Council offer superb training and development opportunities via our online training portal and through our workforce development lead. For ASYE Social Workers you can expect a fully supported first year of practice. As a department we are committed to supporting our staff and providing a healthy work culture. Staff have access to regular supervisions as well as other staff support forums.

Applications are sought from individuals who are committed to demonstrating the values of Middlesbrough Council and who will also:

Have effective assessment and care management skills

Be able to work in a busy environment and to tight time scales

Be committed to multi-disciplinary working

Be able to manage a varied caseload

Applications are invited from suitably qualified individuals (CSS, CQSW, DipSW, Degree in Social Work). Applicants should also be registered, or eligible for registration, with Social Work England.
