Social Worker Opportunities
In Bracknell Forest we usually recruit social workers through the press advertising, but we also welcome informal enquiries.
Our turnover is not high as we value our staff and place importance on professional development. This means that there is an expectation that social workers will go on to take their PQ Child Care award and undertake mandatory training in child protection and other modules of the induction programme. They also have the opportunity to become Practice Teachers.
If this feels like a lot, it is. We want high quality in our staff, so that they are equipped to undertake a demanding role, but one that they can enjoy, knowing that we will invest in them to achieve the best outcomes for children.
We have an attractive package of benefits which includes:
- Buying and selling of annual leave
- Shopping vouchers
- Childcare vouchers
- Professional fees
In addition as a social worker we offer:
- Workload management
- Regular supervision
- Some flexible working
- Some specialist training
If you are a qualified social worker, or are about to become qualified, why not give us a ring to see what vacancies we have and to find out more.
