Social Worker - Long Term Team

Manageable Caseload | Long-Standing, Supportive Management | Flexible Working | Regular Supervision

Are you looking for a role where you're genuinely supported and valued — not just by us as your agency, but by an experienced and welcoming management team / service.

Leaders in Care are supporting with a highly rated council in the Bristol area, currently seeking an experienced Children’s Social Worker to join their Child Protection team. This roleoffers a competitive rate of £38.50 per hour and the opportunity to join a fast-paced yet supportive working environment.

Perks:

• Immediate starts available (with flexibility to wait up to 4 weeks for the right person)
• Flexible working options with option for condensed hours 
• Ongoing support from Leaders in Care throughout your placement, with weekly check ins to ensure you're happy in work

Why this team stands out:

Caseloads are kept manageable and are evenly distributed, so you won’t feel overwhelmed. You’ll be supported by a highly experienced, longstanding management team that truly understands the demands of frontline work. They provide regular reflective supervision and professional guidance — all without micromanaging — so you can work with confidence and autonomy.

The role includes:

• Working on Child in Need cases
• Managing ongoing care proceedings
• Conducting thorough assessments
• Making informed decisions to protect and support children and families

While a range of experience will be considered, previous work in Child Protection and court proceedings is desirable.

As this is a statutory role, you’ll need a recognised social work qualification and registration with Social Work England.
