There has never been a more exciting time to join Adult Social Care in the London Borough of Bromley. We are currently 2 years into our Service Transformation programme; placing our residents as central to everything we do. As outlined in our new Corporate Strategy 'Making Bromley Even Better', we are committed to improving the lives of the people of Bromley by keeping them safe and supporting them to live independently.
About the Role
The London Borough of Bromley, in partnership with Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust are looking to recruit a full-time Senior Social Worker/AMHP to work within our Community Mental Health teams based in Beckenham.
You must hold a Dip SW, CQSW or degree in Social Work and be a qualified AMHP. Registration with Social Work England is a mandatory requirement.
Our Mental Health Hub in Bromley is our single point of access for all referrals to our mental health services. We are a multi-disciplinary team providing the direct link between primary and secondary care services, offering advice and support to GPs, undertaking initial assessments and directing service users to the pathway that will best meet their needs. Team members do not undertake care co-ordination but may undertake short-term working on a small caseload as appropriate for up to 12 weeks to support residents remaining in primary care without need for a secondary service.
An opportunity has arisen for a senior social worker in the Hub, based on-site at our offices in Beckenham. As the Senior Social Worker, you will provide professional supervision to the 2 social workers, undertake or support the most socially complex initial assessments both on-site and in the community, and act as a SAM for the team. Your knowledge of the Care Act, expert advice in safeguarding and advanced practice skills will be highly respected within the service. The Practice Educator award would be desirable but is not essential - the successful applicant however will be offered training for PEPS1 and PEPS2 as appropriate, and as part of our commitment to your ongoing professional development.if you're interested in this role please email your CV to or call
