An exciting opportunity with the Humber and North Yorkshire ICB for a qualified RMN/RNLD, or Social Worker, to join the Section 117 case management team covering North Yorkshire and York. We are looking to recruit a dynamic and innovative Band 6 Complex Case Manager to work as part of the team, delivering effective case management, assessment and reviews across the geography for persons who may be eligible for Section 117 funding.

The successful candidate will join a newly formed integrated team of clinicians, social workers and administrative staff.

This includes people living in the community and those in Specialist placements including in and out of area placements. The post holder would be a resource to support service providers with knowledge of alternative placements and treatment options.
