Job description

Southend-on-Sea City Council are looking to appoint a full-time, permanent Mental Health experienced Social Worker to join the newly formed Adult Mental Health Team.

Working with a sometimes-complex caseload, you will undertake Care Act Assessments, review existing Mental Capacity Assessments, Mental Health Tribunal Reports, Court of Protection Reviews and act as a Social Supervisor for restricted patients under the Mental Health Act.

As a professional Social Worker, you will support adults aged 18 and over, young people transitioning to adult social care and their carers, playing a key role in promoting independence, wellbeing, and choice by providing a proactive, preventative, strength-based social work service. Working directly with individuals and their carers, to help them understand their strengths, assets, and desired outcomes; empowering them to identify and build solutions that enable them to lead safe, healthy, and fulfilling lives.

The council encourages and supports all qualified Social Workers with 2 years’ post registered experience to achieve and maintain additional qualifications and assume additional responsibilities.

These qualifications are currently:

  • Approved Mental Health Practitioner
  • Practice Educator
  • Best Interest Assessor

Hybrid working opportunities are available. However, a flexible approach is needed as you will be required to be on site a minimum of 2 days a week, and it is essential that you are a car driver and have access to a vehicle.

What you'll need to succeed

  • Have UK social work experience
  • A recognised Social Work qualification 
  • Be registered with the Social Work England
  • Completed your ASYE
  • Current experience within Adult Social Work is essential 
  • Previous Mental Health experience would be beneficial to the post

You will ideally have experience in working within a local authority setting and be able to demonstrate your commitment to effective team working.

What you'll get in return

Pension:
 Southend-on-Sea City Council provide membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) for employees aged under 75. The LGPS is a generous scheme and provides you with a future income, independent of share prices and stock market fluctuations.

Leave Entitlements:

We offer our employees a generous leave entitlement from 25 days up to 32 days based on length of service (Continuous service). Southend-on-Sea City Council also offer a range of flexible working and family-friendly leave.

*We also offer paid time off to allow employees to undertake volunteering activities*

Here at Southend-on-Sea City Council we also offer our employees free access to a benefit portal that provides access to wellbeing support and a range of salary sacrifice schemes to help spread the cost of items, including:

  • Bicycles, cars, electronics and gym membership.
  • The portal also provides access to a range of discounts on products and services including retail, food shopping, travel, dining out and leisure activities.

Nowhere else will you gain as much experience on the job, making us a sought-after place to work. If you are passionate, dedicated to making a change and ready for a challenge – you could be the candidate we are looking for.
