Adult's SW - East Locality Team - Cardiff
An opportunity is available for a qualified Adults’ Social Worker to join an East Locality Team in Cardiff. You will support adults and their families to achieve positive outcomes, promote independence and wellbeing, and ensure that care and support arrangements reflect individual needs, wishes and strengths.
Working as part of a busy multidisciplinary service, you will manage a varied caseload involving assessment, care planning, review and safeguarding. You will work with adults who may have a range of needs, including physical disabilities, learning disabilities, mental health difficulties, sensory impairment, older age or complex social circumstances. You will apply a strengths-based, person-centred approach and ensure that individuals are fully involved in decisions about their care and support.
Your responsibilities will include completing proportionate assessments, identifying eligible needs, arranging and reviewing care packages, and working collaboratively with families, carers, health professionals, housing services and voluntary-sector partners. You will contribute to safeguarding enquiries, mental capacity assessments and best-interest decisions where required, maintaining a clear focus on legal, ethical and professional standards.
You will maintain accurate, timely records and provide clear reports and recommendations. The role requires effective risk management, sound professional judgement and the confidence to make balanced decisions in complex or changing situations. You will also contribute to service development and share knowledge with colleagues and partner agencies.
Applicants must hold a recognised Social Work qualification and be registered with Social Care Wales. Recent experience of working with adults in a statutory or community-based setting is desirable, along with knowledge of the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act, safeguarding procedures and the Mental Capacity Act. You should be an excellent communicator, organised and resilient, with the ability to prioritise competing demands while maintaining high standards of practice.
This role offers the opportunity to make a meaningful difference to adults in the local community while developing your professional experience within a supportive and collaborative team.
