Merton is a good place to work and we have a generally low turnover of staff but we currently have vacancies for 2 Qualified Social workers due to staff who are moving on to fresh fields.
We are the first point of contact for new people coming to Adult Social Care and we are here to offer individualised advice and information, try to find solutions to customers’ queries and issues and if necessary, take referrals.
