The posting

Our client based in Shropshire is seeking an experienced Senior Social Worker to join their Community Team, supporting adults across the North Shropshire locality. This is an excellent opportunity for a highly skilled practitioner to work with older adults, people with physical disabilities, and individuals with complex care and support needs, delivering strengths-based and person-centred interventions that promote independence and wellbeing.

The successful candidate will manage a complex caseload whilst providing high-quality assessments, care planning, safeguarding interventions, and professional social work support. Working within Adult Social Care, you will play a key role in helping people remain safely within their own homes and communities, reducing reliance on long-term services wherever possible. You will work collaboratively with health professionals, carers, families, and partner agencies to achieve positive outcomes and support effective service delivery.

  • Contribute to safeguarding enquiries and Multi-Agency Protection of Vulnerable Adults procedures.
  • Undertake Mental Capacity Assessments and contribute to Best Interest decision-making in line with the Mental Capacity Act 2005.
  • Support individuals in hospital settings to facilitate safe and timely discharge back into the community.
  • Coordinate support services that prevent unnecessary hospital admissions and promote independent living.
  • Work in partnership with health professionals, housing providers, carers, voluntary organisations, and other agencies.
  • Assess and manage risk effectively while balancing individual choice, rights, and autonomy.
  • Promote active involvement of service users, carers, and families in assessment and care planning processes.
  • Maintain accurate case records, assessments, reports, and support plans in accordance with legislative and organisational requirements.

Benefits of the role:

  • Competitive hourly rate of £31.97 per hour.
  • Opportunity to work within a supportive and experienced Adult Social Care team.
  • Diverse and rewarding caseload across the North Shropshire locality.
  • Exposure to complex assessment, safeguarding, and hospital discharge work.
  • Collaborative multidisciplinary working environment.
  • Ongoing professional development opportunities.

Qualifications and Experience:

  • MA, BA, BSc in Social Work, Diploma in Social Work, CQSW, or equivalent recognised Social Work qualification.
  • Registered with Social Work England (SWE).
  • Significant post-qualified experience within Adult Social Care.
  • Strong knowledge of the Care Act 2014, Mental Capacity Act 2005, Adult Safeguarding legislation, and associated statutory guidance.
  • Experience undertaking complex assessments, reviews, support planning, and risk management.
  • Experience contributing to safeguarding investigations and multi-agency adult protection procedures.
  • Previous hospital discharge and community-based social work experience.
  • Strong partnership-working skills with health professionals, carers, and statutory and voluntary sector organisations.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
