What is the job role?

Are you creative, desire autonomy, demonstrate leadership and want to influence our next new chapter?

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Social Work Team Leader in one of our Newly Developed One Coventry Integrated Teams.

Local Integrated Teams are being built around localities to coordinate an urgent response, tailored to the diverse needs of our people.  The teams will be responsible for responding to critical need in the community, supporting discharge from hospital and providing short term reablement services.

Working with a diverse network of professionals and service users within these new teams, as a Social Work Team Leader, you will provide leadership in the evolvement of the Integrated Team, with a particular emphasis on the role and practice of Social Work and line management of Social Workers to enable a crucial and effective provision across multiple disciplines but ultimately, ensuring our residents at the heart of what we do.

This is a fabulous time to join us as we continue our journey of establishing the Local Integrated Teams with our system health partners.

This post is exempted under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and as such appointment to this post will be conditional upon the receipt of a satisfactory response to a check of police records via Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
