An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Social Worker to join the Nairn & Ardersier Social Care Team. This is a permanent, full time position of 37 hours per week based at Nairn Town & County Hospital.
The post is interesting and varied in nature providing an Adult Social Work service across the Nairn area.
The Team is busy but supportive, and is looking for a qualified individual who can work autonomously but also effectively as part of a social work team and wider integrated team to deliver safe and effective social work practice.
Case work will be generic in nature, interesting and varied. Duties include the execution of essential statutory functions; working with individuals, families, carers and wider communities to complete person centred outcome focused assessments; dealing with and managing complex situations and risk, and working effectively in a multi-disciplinary way.
We are looking for an enthusiastic practitioner, who has experience of working with people with a wide range of needs and who is person centred and outcome focused in their approach. It would be preferable if candidates had a good working knowledge of Adult Support and Protection.
