What You Need to Succeed:

  • Qualifications: A degree in Social Work (BA/BSc/MA or equivalent).
  • Registration: Current and active registration with Social Work England (SWE).
  • Experience: Proven post-qualifying experience specifically within Adult Safeguarding, with a deep understanding of statutory frameworks (Care Act 2014, Mental Capacity Act 2005).
  • Skills: Excellent analytical, communication, and conflict-resolution skills, with the ability to manage a complex caseload efficiently.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive Pay: A highly attractive rate of £36.00 per hour.
  • Supportive Culture: Regular, reflective supervision and a management team committed to your professional well-being.
  • Meaningful Impact: The opportunity to make a tangible difference in the lives of vulnerable adults in the Wirral community.
