An exciting opportunity is available for a qualified Adult Social Worker to join a dedicated Practice Development (PD) Team within an adult social care service. This role is suited to an experienced practitioner who is passionate about improving outcomes for adults, strengthening professional practice and supporting colleagues to deliver high-quality, person-centred care.
You will provide guidance, coaching and professional support to social workers and wider teams, helping to embed effective strengths-based practice. Your responsibilities will include contributing to practice development initiatives, supporting the interpretation and application of legislation and policy, facilitating learning opportunities, and promoting consistent standards across adult social care services.
The role will also involve undertaking or contributing to complex assessments, reviews and safeguarding activity where required. You will work collaboratively with adults, families, carers and partner agencies to promote independence, choice and wellbeing. Maintaining accurate records, producing clear reports and identifying opportunities for service improvement will be important aspects of the position.

Experience of practice education, mentoring, quality assurance, training delivery or professional development would be highly advantageous.
You will be an excellent communicator with the ability to influence, challenge constructively and build positive relationships at all levels. A reflective, organised and proactive approach is essential, along with the ability to manage competing priorities and work effectively both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team. A current driving licence and the ability to travel between service locations may be required.
