**We’re looking for a Senior Practitioner - interested?**
Do you want a role where you’re recognised for what you do, given the opportunity to thrive and have the chance to be the best version of yourself? Interested in joining a great organisation with an employee offer and experience that rivals others? Are you looking for a new challenge in Adult Social Care? If so, please keep reading as you’re just what we’re looking for
**The team**
Our Assessment teams use a conversational approach, focusing on an individual’s strengths and the community around them, supporting Gateshead residents to live thriving lives. Teams across the service provide assessment, intervention, and support in relation to an individual’s social care needs with a focus on promoting wellbeing and independence, helping individuals take greater control over their lives by championing an early engagement model. Working in this way promotes the individual’s access to other agencies and provides them with the tools to be both physically and mentally healthy, reducing their need for long-term provisions and re-enable them where possible.
**About the role.**
Gateshead Council’s ambitious Adult Social Care service are currently looking to recruit one Senior Practitioner to our Safeguarding Team.
Safeguarding means protecting an adult's right to live safe, free from abuse and neglect. It is about people and organisations working together to prevent and stop both the risks and experience of abuse or neglect. At the same time we promote the wellbeing of adults. When deciding on what to do, it's important to consider their opinions, desires, emotions, and beliefs.
As part of the Safeguarding Team, you will be overseeing the Adult Safeguarding Triage Process and supervising Social Workers and Assessing Officers. You will also be working with a Team Manager, Senior Practitioner and Safeguarding Coordinators.
People really are our greatest asset at Gateshead Council and we value every employee. We encourage our people to think differently, do the right thing and be innovative.
**A bit about Gateshead Council**

We’re truly committed to providing our customers with the highest quality of service and we need like-minded people who can help us deliver a high-quality service. We need people who want to make a difference, who are talented, possess the right knowledge and skills and who want the chance to demonstrate how good they are.
