We want to enable our Social Workers to build real relationships with children, families, and Carers. Our vision is a Southend where all children achieve success. By joining Southend-on-sea City Council, you will be key in making our vision a reality for all children.
You will be joining a service where we demonstrate with pride that all paths lead back to the child – we will spend time getting to know each child and their story, we do what we say we’re going to do, we work with the whole family and not matter what, we aim to make things better.
As a social worker with Southend-on-Sea City Council, you’ll be valued. We’re ambitious about the future and prosperity of our City. You’ll be driving our ambitions by helping our young people thrive, grow, and lead fulfilling lives.
Our professional development opportunities will give you fantastic learning opportunities, enabling you to make a real change to the lives of our families and children. The Step Up to Social Work programme will provide you with hands on learning experience, academic learning, and access to our outstanding student community. As a newly qualified social worker, our Assessed and Supported Year in Employment programme will ensure your continued learning and support.
