Where necessary, the SCP will work with people in crisis to stabilise their situation and in some cases plan to meet needs by arranging long-term packages of support.

The role will also involve working with carers.

The role is very varied and will involve working with adults with a wide range of needs and disabilities.

The role sits within a small team of staff which includes Social Workers and Occupational Therapists so working collaborativley with others will be key.

It will also be important to work with both external partners (e.g. Health, Voluntary Sector) and internal partners (e.g. Commissioning, Safeguarding)


West Berkshire Council offer excellent employment benefits such as flexible working, access to a wide range of relevant training, local government pension scheme, family friendly policies, a range of local discounts and much more.

You will also be entitled to a generous annual leave entitlement of 28 days per annum rising to a maximum of 33 days.
