    A full time, permanent vacancy has arisen for a Social Worker in the South Locality, Crieff Adult Social Work and Social Care Team, working 36 hrs per week.

    The team manages long term complex cases, across a largely rural area, to the south and west of Perth, including Crieff and Auchterarder. We work with Adults and Carers from the age of 16, who require social work interventions, supports and services.

    Our mission statement here in south locality goes as follows: "We will work together locally to support you to live your best life." We are looking for an enthusiastic, creative, and hard working social worker who can help us deliver on this.

    This is an excellent opportunity to join a well-established, highly skilled, supportive, and motivated team. There is access to a wide range of training, supervision and development opportunities. Additional benefits include flexible working hours and practices including hybrid working, generous annual leave entitlement, employee benefits scheme (including car leasing), and pension scheme.

There are many interesting and diverse practice opportunities for front line staff to participate in, and opportunities to share and develop skills.

    The ability to be flexible and respond to crisis / competing demands are essential to the role.

    An in-depth understanding of Self Directed Support and how this can be successfully delivered in a sometimes challenging and rural context, is essential.

    The ability to integrate and cultivate successful links within the team, partnership as a whole, across key services, and with the community, is highly desirable.

    Knowledge of services, challenges, demands, and demographics within PKC would be an advantage.

    An ability and commitment to work creatively and constructively to achieve truly personal outcomes together with your clients is critical.

    You must have experience and skills of undertaking person centred assessments and reviews.

    You will be required to demonstrate a sound knowledge and understanding of social work principles and values.

    Experience and knowledge of Adult Support and Protection Procedures and all relevant legislation are essential.

    You must have a valid UK driving licence as this post requires you to travel to a variety of locations across Perth and Kinross.

    The Individual

    The successful candidate will assist in maintaining vulnerable people in the community, by providing a range of social work and care management services in accordance with the Health and Social Care Standards and the SSSC Codes of Practice.

    Tasks include completing Outcome Focussed Assessments and Reviews, the negotiation of flexible packages of care, and monitoring care packages through Self Directed Support (SDS). Responsibilities also include statutory work in accordance with the Adults with Incapacity (Scotland) 2000 Act and the Adult Support and Protection (Scotland) Act 2007.

    This post may be suitable for candidates who have recently completed their Social Work Degree but have not yet graduated. In this circumstance, a Social Work Assistant contract will be offered until you receive your qualifying certificate and are eligible to register with the SSSC as a Social Worker.
