Thank you for taking the time to find out more about
children's social work opportunities at North Somerset
Council.
North Somerset really is a lovely place to live and work. It is
an ideal location - with close proximity to cities like Bristol,
Bath and Cardiff and the amazing range of entertainment, culture
and sport that they offer.
From North Somerset it is an easy journey to London and there
are several regional airports close by allowing access to Europe
and beyond.
It’s also the gateway to Somerset, Devon, Cornwall and Dorset. All
of which are home to some of the most beautiful coastline
and countryside in Europe.
More information can be found on our
working with us page.
Come onboard and you’ll be joining a Children’s Service that is
already recognised by OfSTED as being ‘good’.
Our small multi-skilled practice groups, headed up by a new and
energetic breed of practice leaders, are now well established.
They are known widely for delivering excellence in their field
and building strong links with multi-agency, multi-professional
locality teams.
Our ambition for Children’s Services in North Somerset is one where
we can provide excellent services, are recognised nationally as a
beacon for good practice, and where staff feel valued and proud to
work.
We have also produced a short video,
called Social
work job opportunities at North Somerset Council to show
you what it's like working with us.
More details about the work we do can be found on
our services page.
Details of current vacancies with us are available
with on our
jobs opportunities page.
Our vision is that by July 2010 social care practice in North
Somerset will be amongst the best, most reputable, safest and
progressive in the country.
Come and join us and help deliver our vision whilst realising your
ambitions. So go on, put in your application. I’m sure you won’t
regret it!
