Embark on a fulfilling journey as a Qualified Social Worker within a Duty and Assessment team, positioned in a small, yet dynamic local authority in the West Midlands. This role promises not only a competitive remuneration of £28.55 per hour but also the chance to make a tangible difference in the community.
