You will have the opportunity to participate in training, and your continuous development will be encouraged and supported throughout your career with Perth & Kinross Council.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a well-established, highly skilled team, with excellent training, supervision and development opportunities provided. Benefits also include flexible working scheme, modern working practices, generous annual leave entitlement and pension scheme.

Effective time management is essential for a successful autonomous worker to manage a complex caseload with the ability to be flexible and respond to crisis / competing demands being integral to the role.

Knowledge of Adult Support and Protection, Adults with Incapacity legislation, along with an understanding of carers legislation would be desirable.
