This secondment is for a 4-month period to cover maternity leave, with the potential to be extended   
As a Senior Social Worker, you’ll bring expertise, leadership and empathy to a dedicated team working with adults facing severe and enduring mental health challenges. You’ll guide colleagues, manage complex cases and help ensure safe, person-centred care 
  
In this varied and meaningful role, you’ll support the day-to-day running of the mental health team, deputising for the Team Manager and acting as Duty Manager on a rota. You’ll help screen new referrals, manage triage and safeguarding 
concerns, and ensure duty work is handled efficiently and with care. 
  
You’ll lead by example in multi-agency meetings, offering a clear social work voice in decision-making. You’ll work closely with community mental health teams, voluntary groups and healthcare partners – building relationships that 
improve support and keep people safe.
