Are you an experienced Social Worker, if so there is an exciting opportunity to join Hull City Council. As part of the Children’s Social Care reform we have created additional Advanced Social Work positions across the Locality Safeguarding Teams, who don’t case hold. There is one position based in the West team. The post holder will be supervised by the Group Manager and provide additional support to the teams.

Hull Children's Services has recently achieved its strongest ever Ofsted judgement, being rated Good overall, with Outstanding judgements for the impact of leaders on social work practice and for the experiences and progress of care leavers. Inspectors recognised the significant progress made across the service, describing it as "safer, stronger and more consistent" for children and families.

Ofsted highlighted Hull's strong workforce culture, effective early help services, strong management oversight, and a commitment to ensuring children's voices are central to decision-making.

This is an exciting time to join Hull. We are a service with a clear vision, ambitious plans for the future, and a workforce committed to improving the lives of children, young people and families every day.

The retention and learning and development offers are well received.
