About the role

Looking for a role where your expertise is truly valued from day one?

At Randstad, we are actively recruiting for an experienced Social Worker to join a dynamic Older Adults team. If you are passionate about supporting older adults, love the variety of throughcare and assessment work, and pride yourself on being able to step into a new team and make an immediate impact-this is the perfect fit for you. We need a skilled professional who can confidently manage a complex workload without needing their hand held.

Pay Rate: £30.00 - £38.00 per hour

Hours: Full-Time (36 hours/week) | Flexible options available

Why This Role Stands Out

Top-Tier Pay: Earn a highly competitive hourly rate between £30 and £38/hr, reflective of your experience and independence.

Flexibility That Actually Works: While the standard role is a full-time, 36-hour week, we know life requires balance. We will happily consider condensed working hours (such as a 4-day compressed week) or a minimum of 30 hours spread over 4 days.

The Randstad Advantage: Enjoy streamlined onboarding, reliable weekly payroll, a dedicated consultant to manage your placement, and exclusive access to future roles.

What You'll Be Doing

As a core member of the team, you will be handling dynamic throughcare and comprehensive assessment work, ensuring vulnerable older adults receive the right support at the right time. You will:

  • Conduct robust, person-centered assessments to determine care and support needs.
  • Manage complex cases, ensuring seamless throughcare and transitional support.
  • Safeguard vulnerable older adults while actively promoting their independence and well-being.
  • Collaborate effectively with multi-disciplinary teams, health professionals, and families.

What We Need From You (The Non-Negotiables)

Because this role requires someone who can confidently manage a busy caseload independently from day one, we can only consider candidates who meet the following criteria:

  • Qualified Social Worker: Valid registration with SSSC.
  • Proven Experience: A solid background working within Older Adults, Adult Social Care, or Hospital Discharge teams.
  • Assessment Expertise: Confident, proven skills in handling throughcare and complex assessment processes.
