Pay rate, £39.04 per hour
Vitalis are recruiting for a Qualified Social Worker to work in a Referral and Assessment team in Bromley.

2. Children in Need - children whose needs cannot be met through the CAF (Common Assessment Framework) and TAC (Team Around the Child) process or ones with a range of complex needs
3. The initial stages of new Looked After episodes for a child or young person
