In South Tyneside our children and families are at the forefront of everything we do. We want every child and family to feel supported in times of need and empowered to make the right decisions. We take pride in our social work teams, where staff are valued and supported and where we work together to drive this vision forward. If you hold the same values, believe you can make the difference and are looking to join a team who will deliver and support, then look no further.
