Good communication and problem-solving skills are essential, as well as knowledge of the needs of older adults. We also are looking for people who can demonstrate the Trust’s vision and values in practice, and are motivated to be involved in innovation and service development.

As a social worker in the team, we will ensure that you have clinical and professional support from a qualified Social Worker to support the maintenance of your professional registration.
