Permanent Relief: Out of Hours Experienced Social Worker - Adults

Role Responsibility

An exciting opportunity has arisen within the Front Door Service, and we are seeking to recruit to our highly motivated, friendly and supportive Out of Hours permanent relief (Sessional) cohort of staff.

The Out of Hours Service provides essential Social Work cover for children and adults across Kent and  Medway.

Our valued sessional staff provide vital support to the service and we are seeking to recruit qualified social workers/care managers who have skills and experience within adults services/ protection and who have the availability to work outside of standard office hours, mainly at weekends.

You will need to have extensive experience,  a working knowledge of the care act 2014 and will be required to undertake visits to service users as well as provide 'office' based support. They must hold a relevant degree or diploma and be registered with the appropriate professional body.

The package includes pro rata annual leave entitlement, annual pay progression,  line management and supervision.

This post is considered by KCC to be a customer-facing position. The Council therefore has a statutory duty under Part 7 of the Immigration Act (2016) to ensure that post holders have a command of spoken English/Welsh sufficient for the effective performance of the job requirements. The appropriate standards are set out in the Job Description/Person Specification.

This post is subject to an Enhanced Disclosure application to the Disclosure and Barring service and registration as a qualified Social Worker with Social Work England.
