  • Support families and carers while promoting strengths-based and outcome-focused practice.
  • Mentor and support ASYE social workers, students, and less experienced colleagues.
  • Contribute to service development initiatives, quality assurance activities, and continuous improvement projects.

  • Substantial post-qualified experience within Adult Social Care and Adult Safeguarding.
  • Strong understanding of the Care Act 2014, Mental Capacity Act 2005, Continuing Healthcare guidance, and Adult Safeguarding legislation.
  • Experience conducting complex assessments, safeguarding enquiries, and risk management interventions.
  • Proven ability to work effectively within multi-agency safeguarding frameworks.

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.
