Due to team reconfiguration an exciting opportunity has arisen within the IRT team in Lichfield for a Band 4 Duty Screener. This is a permanent position and is an ideal opportunity for someone who wishes to work in adult social care. It would be suited to someone who has an interest in the welfare of those in the community of Lichfield and surrounding areas who may need telephone support, signposting, advice, reassurance, information gathering and triaging. It is a crucial position in supporting the teams as it is the initial point of contact and requires the ability to concisely record in detail which then supports the allocation process and interventions by colleagues.

All contact is done via telephone. It is a fast-paced role which requires excellent communication skills, a good telephone manner and skills in IT and recording on the system electronically. The role involves working closely with service-users, carers, partner agencies and other professionals as well as your colleagues.

You will be fully supported to develop your skills and experience and the successful applicant will be working alongside social workers, social care assessors and senior care act assessors. You will have the full support of the Practice Lead with monthly formal supervision.
