* Your birthday off + extra "Good Health" days
* Career progression built in from day one

* Developing strong relationships with Local Authorities
* Driving quality assurance, safeguarding and compliance
* Coaching and supervising staff, conducting appraisals and team meetings

This is a great opportunity to go into a non-case holding role where you will manage a close-knit team of supervising social works. You will be joining an agency where the senior leadership team has risen through the ranks, with two of the directors starting out 16 and 24 years ago, so progression is very much encouraged!
