Adult's SW - Locality Team - Rotherham
We are seeking a qualified Adult Social Worker to join a busy locality team supporting adults and their families across the Rotherham area. This is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference by promoting independence, wellbeing and choice, while ensuring people receive safe, personalised and proportionate support.
You will manage a varied caseload involving assessment, care planning, review and safeguarding. Working closely with individuals, carers and partner agencies, you will identify strengths, needs and desired outcomes, enabling people to live as independently as possible. You will undertake person-centred assessments, develop and review support plans, arrange appropriate services and ensure that decisions are based on relevant legislation, policy and best practice.
The role will involve responding to changing circumstances, managing risk and contributing to safeguarding enquiries where required. You will maintain accurate, timely records and produce clear professional reports, while demonstrating sound judgement in relation to eligibility, capacity, consent and least restrictive practice. Effective partnership working with health professionals, care providers, housing services and voluntary organisations will be essential.
Applicants must hold a recognised Social Work qualification and current registration with Social Work England. You should have experience of working with adults in a social care, health or community setting, along with a sound understanding of the Care Act, Mental Capacity Act and safeguarding principles. We are looking for a confident communicator who can build positive relationships, manage competing priorities and work effectively both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team.
You will need strong assessment, recording and analytical skills, together with a commitment to equality, dignity and strengths-based practice. A valid driving licence and the ability to travel within the locality may be required. In return, you will have the opportunity to develop your practice within a supportive team and contribute to positive outcomes for adults and their carers.
