Experienced Children's Social Workers

Full time, 37 hours (flexible and part time hours considered)

Salary up to £42,503 (depending on level / experience)

East Dorset & Purbeck, West Dorset & Dorchester, Chesil (Weymouth &Portland) and North Dorset


Are you seeking a rewarding career in Children's Services? In Dorset, we are committed to creating an environment where every child can
thrive, and we want our social workers to do the same.


As part of our model, we have developed multi-agency locality teams bringing together colleagues from across Early Help, Children's Social Care, Educational Psychology, SEND and Inclusion services under the leadership of Heads of Locality and Strategy.

The Locality Children's Social Care teams works with Child in Need, Child protection, Pre proceedings and Court work. All our teams are highly motivated, aspirational and high performing.

We also have truly exciting initiatives.

Some examples are the pineapple project that provides safe havens in Weymouth to help to keep young women safer when they are outside of their family home using the principles of community guardianship.

Another project that is due to be rolled out across all localities after pilots in Weymouth, Portland and Dorchester is Safeguarding Families Together; embedding specialist multi-disciplinary professionals within teams and working 'whole family'.

In the East of the county, the first two family hubs (with more locations planned) provide visible, appealing and welcoming spaces for families to access help and support from Dorset Council and partner services.


Our focus is on supporting families to meet the needs of their children and keeping children at home where it is safe to do so.

You'll find a variety of exciting challenges, working with our children, families, and partners, in a workplace that inspires you to grow professionally and personally.


What's in it for you:


Join us and be part of our
exceptional Children's Services team, recently recognized as Good with Outstanding Leadership by Ofsted.

This is not just a job; it's an extraordinary opportunity to empower children and help them reach their full potential.

In July this year, the Department for Education officially announced the Families First for Children Pathfinder.

Dorset has been recognised for the fantastic work with children, young people and families taking place by being selected to be one of only three initial pathfinder sites nationally, testing the delivery of key reforms across the sector.

This is a fantastic opportunity and comes with central government grant funding and support which recognises the scale and ambition of the work we need to carry out.

Be part of designing social work for the future.
