    We are proud of our social workers and our commitment to supporting newly qualified social workers.

    We have a proven track record of investment in newly qualified workers and are determined to help you to become the best social worker that you can be.

    We want those who come through our programme to remain with us and to continue to develop and progress providing a high-quality service to children in Norfolk.

    We are holding an informal Virtual Open Evening on Wednesday 17th January 2024 where you can hear from our current ASYE cohort and ask questions about what to expect during your supported year.

    Personal advisers and social workers have caseloads which 'enable them to build enduring and effective relationships with their young people and support them into adulthood'.

    Working in Norfolk you will be empowered to be tenacious and creative in using a range of tools and theoretical frameworks to help children through significant and traumatic experiences.

    Relationship-based partnership working is one of our strengths in Norfolk with an innovative system-wide approach to the delivery of services and a diverse range of multi-agency support services focused on building resilience and ensuring that needs are met quickly and at the lowest level.

    Our executive director of children's services (DCS) Sara Tough is an exemplary leader who champions the needs of children and young people with a strong senior management team who together provide continuity of management and strategic direction.

    Our economy is growing and driven by innovation in a number of sectors, including energy and food. We also have ambitious plans for new housing and a building programme for schools across Norfolk. We are the main local authority for Norfolk providing services countywide to more than 850,000 Norfolk residents.

    We take the lead in critical policy areas, working with 84 elected Members responsible for the strategic local government services in the county.

    We provide a high quality service through involving people who use our services to shape and comment on them and by promoting efficiency and innovation.

    We work in partnership with local businesses, voluntary organisations and other local authorities such as District and Parish Councils to provide the people of Norfolk with excellent services.
