Contract role
Vitalis are recruiting for an experienced Social Worker to work in an Initial and Assessment team in Cardiff.

Practitioners hold cases for a short period of time; long term work is generally transferred at the first planning meeting. The Team is on a duty rota for one week in every three meaning you have the opportunity to plan and record your work in a structured and organised way. Social Workers may also be involved in care and private law proceedings. Cardiff Intake and Assessment Teams are established with experienced staff who support each other during challenging times. Cardiff work creatively under the Signs of Safety model for the best possible outcomes for families. All employees are valued by Cardiff Council; training opportunities are available to everyone to ensure continued professional development.
