Children's Social Worker

We are seeking an experienced social worker to work in one of our Family Support Teams. The Family Support Teams hold a mixed caseload of children on the Child Protection Register, children requiring Care and Support and children in Care Proceedings.

Following significant investment into our Family Support Teams we are seeking to add capacity and build resilience and stability. As a Social Worker in the Vale of Glamorgan you will have a manageable workload, excellent support and time to spend with children and young people.

We are also developing our services to support our bespoke strength-based approach Building on Strengths. This approach recognises the expertise of our children, families and workers, and puts relationships at the heart of everything we do. Now is an exciting time to work in the Vale.

You can expect warmth and high levels of support from a committed workforce and an Authority where wellbeing and development are central to our work.

In return, in joining our expanded service, you can expect to be part of an Authority that is resourceful and resilient, committed to improvement and keen to embrace new ideas. Building on widely acknowledged strengths, you will be supported by an able and committed team who have a proven capacity for good service delivery. Support, warmth and opportunities to develop will be central to our offer to you.
