The EDT provides an out-of-hours service, responding to statutory emergencies and other social work matters that cannot be safely left until the following working day. Our EDT service is a regional partnership arrangement with the Vale of Glamorgan Council, hosted and managed by Cardiff County Council to all citizens across the two local authority areas working collaboratively with partner agencies and other emergency services.
About the JobAs an EDT Principal Social Worker, you will have a commitment to safeguarding and upholding the rights of children, young people, and adults, working in a strength-based, preventative way. In a rewarding, diverse, but complex environment, you will deal with a range of cases from child protection to mental health act assessments, and decisions that need to be made in the context of each individual case to achieve optimum outcomes. You will be committed to working in a way that promotes equality and inclusion for all our citizens and work closely with other agencies such as the Police and Health professionals.
The contractual hours will be [insert hours] per week, working as part of a rolling rota which attract additional allowances for working unsocial hours. You will have regular formal and informal supervision from the EDT Service Lead.

What We Are Looking For From YouWe are looking for qualified Social Workers with experience of safeguarding in both adults and children. You will have extensive knowledge of relevant legislation and be committed to your ongoing professional development. You will possess excellent assessment and analytical skills and be able to make sound risk assessments and decisions in a crisis. You will have experience of assessment of risk and complex needs of vulnerable adults and children and be able to work both autonomously and collaboratively with colleagues and partner agencies.
You will be able to demonstrate high standards of professional practice, including good record keeping, ICT competence, and prompt and effective handover to daytime services and colleagues. You will have good communication skills and be able to work effectively with service users, colleagues, senior management, and other professional bodies as required.
A degree in Social Work or equivalent Social Work qualification and registration with Social Care Wales are essential, as well as being an Approved Mental Health Professional (AMHP) for which an additional allowance is paid.
