We're looking for a qualified Social Worker to join the West Locality Learning Disabilities Team in Haringey. This team forms part of the Haringey Learning Disability Partnership and works closely with health colleagues to deliver high-quality, person-centred support to adults with learning disabilities.

You'll manage a varied caseload, carry out complex assessments, and work directly with individuals, families, and carers to achieve outcomes that promote independence, dignity, and inclusion. This is an opportunity to contribute to an evolving model of locality-based social work that focuses on strengths-based approaches and collaborative working.

• Mental Capacity Act 2005

• Mental Health Act 1983

• Human Rights Act 1998

• Undertake high-quality assessments and interventions

• Support people in crisis and manage complex cases

• Work in a strengths-based, outcome-focused way

• Maintain strong multi-agency relationships

• Uphold anti-discriminatory practice

• Keep up to date with research, policy and best practice

• Contribute to team development and service improvement

Experience as a Practice Educator or DoLS Assessor is desirable but not essential.

Haringey is a borough full of energy, diversity and ambition. As we prepare to become the 2027 London Borough of Culture, we're proud to invest in services that empower our communities - and in the staff who help deliver them.
