This is an exciting leadership opportunity for the successful applicant to lead and manage a busy adult community social work team.

The role will require working closely with the other Practice Leads and the Assistant Statutory Social Care Services Manager (ASSCSM) in continuing to drive and develop a quality, strengths based service, which is responsive to service users, carers and the demands of the community.

Some of the desirable qualities required for the role are commitment, resilience, enthusiasm, effective communication and strong decision making skills.

We are looking for a dynamic individual, committed to professional development to join and lead an experienced and enthusiastic team.

The work is varied and challenging, working with a diverse demographic providing a breadth of experience and challenge.

Midlands Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (MPFT) is an award winning organisation with over 9000 employees.

We are one of the largest integrated Health and Social Care providers, covering services across North & South Staffordshire, Shropshire, Hampshire, Buckinghamshire, Isle of Wight and Essex.

We are embedding values based and inclusive recruitment practices to ensure that all applicants, from any backgrounds, have an equal chance of success in achieving a role with us.

There is an emphasis on leading professional development within the team, driving performance, managing budgets and resources and collaborating closely with health and social care colleagues to shape the service.

The role will provide opportunity to develop collective leadership skills in a supportive and friendly environment.

The role will suit an experienced practitioner, preferably with a Practice Educator or Best Interest Assessor qualification or a commitment to achieving one of these awards.

You will require an in-depth knowledge of safeguarding, complex case management, responding to crisis situations and will enjoy supporting and working with team members to promote excellent practice.
