Location: Town Hall, Albert Square, Manchester (UK)
Salary: £37 Hourly

We have an exciting and ongoing opportunity for an experienced social worker to join our cared for children team in a full-time locum role. You will be based at the heart of Manchester in the iconic Town Hall, Albert Square. As a social worker, your expertise will be invaluable in supporting children who are in care, whether that's at home with parents, with foster families, in residential settings, or living with relatives.

Perks and benefits:

  • Joining us as a locum means you gain the flexibility and variety that come with these roles, allowing you to build a schedule that suits your lifestyle while exploring different professional environments. As a full-time locum, you'll benefit from competitive rates and the chance to broaden your expertise across various settings. Additionally, you'll enjoy being part of a supportive and dedicated team located in the lively and dynamic city of Manchester. Add to that the professional development opportunities and the satisfaction of making a tangible impact on children's lives every day - and this offer becomes hard to resist!


What you will do:

  • Carry out comprehensive assessments and regularly review the history and plans for the children in care.
  •  Develop, implement, and evaluate care plans to meet the individual needs of children.
  • Engage and interact with children, ensuring their voices and experiences are heard and considered.
  •  Support children placed in various settings, including at home, with foster carers, or in residential care.

  •  Maintain accurate and up-to-date records, ensuring compliance with statutory requirements.
  • Attend multi-agency meetings and contribute to team discussions.


We invite you to be part of our hard-working yet welcoming office in Wythenshawe. While safeguarding experience is essential, direct experience within the cared for team is not required. Our team supports career growth and the opportunity to enhance skills in a dynamic environment.

Manchester is a vibrant and culturally rich city, with Town Hall, Albert Square at its historical centre. Here, you'll find a mix of modern amenities and traditional charm, making it not only a fantastic place to work but also a perfect location to live and immerse yourself in the lively Manchester community.
