Job Posting: Recruiting SW's for London UK

A bit far away, but thought I'd put this out there. 

Come and work in London
Interviews being held in July in Toronto

London in the United Kingdom has it all – rich history, a vibrant night life, striking architecture and wide-open green spaces. If you are interested in living and working in a city that has it all, we can help.

The London Borough of Newham has partnered with HCL Social Care to recruit several qualified social workers for fulltime permanent positions. We will be interviewing for these roles in the city centre of Toronto on 28 and 29 July. To register your interest now, click here or email projects@hclworkforce.com.

Newham is a great place to be a social worker. It’s an incredibly diverse borough with a young population and is experiencing considerable regeneration as part of the Olympic legacy. The borough is changing and so are the services we provide vulnerable children and young people. We have a permanent and stable management team in Children’s Social Care and are now recruiting experienced social workers to the remaining vacancies in our Assessment, Intervention and Looked After Children’s Teams.

Newham is looking for high performing practitioners who would like the opportunity to develop their skills in complex casework, who are committed to working well with partners across the borough and to delivering excellent outcomes for our most vulnerable children and families.

HCL Social Care and The London Borough of Newham understand that moving to the UK is a daunting and exciting prospect and will support you every step of the way by offering:

• A clear competency and career progression path, including a workforce development programme designed to build your capacity to assess effectively, manage risk, plan in an outcome focused way and undertake effective direct work with children and young people.
• Training in systemic approaches; social workers have access to an 18 day accredited Foundation Course.
• Help sourcing accommodation for your arrival to the UK.
• Assistance with travel arrangements.
• Help collating the documentation required for your registration with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC).
• Advice on how to do the little things, like obtaining your National Insurance number and how to set up a bank account in the UK.

In return we will require you to:

• Be prepared to work in the UK for a minimum of two years.
• Hold a suitable social work qualification.
• Possess a minimum of three years applicable working experience.
• Be prepared to register with the HCPC.
• Hold a valid driving license.

If you are looking for a new challenge and would relish the chance to work in a dynamic environment, email your CV to projects@hclworkforce.com or alternatively you can register your interest by clicking here and filling in the form. After reviewing your CV, HCL Social Care will arrange and conduct an initial telephone interview. If you are successful, you will then be invited for an interview in central Toronto on July 28 or 29.
