  • Collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams, external agencies, and community services to ensure coordinated safeguarding responses.
  • Mentor and support junior social workers, promoting best practice and professional development within the team.
  • Use your analytical, interpersonal, and decision‑making skills to manage complex cases and make confident recommendations.
  • Contribute to improving adult safeguarding policies, processes, and outcomes across the service.

  • Significant experience in adult safeguarding, particularly with adults at risk, exploitation, or long‑term complex cases.
  • Previous leadership or senior‑level experience is highly desirable.
