Make a Lasting Impact in a Progressive, Person-Centred Service

Dudley Council is seeking two dedicated and skilled Senior Social Workers to join our Dudley Disability Service — a dynamic and growing team committed to delivering high-quality, strength-based social work to young people and adults with disabilities.

This is a fantastic opportunity for professionals who are passionate about empowering individuals with Learning Disabilities, Autism, Physical Disabilities or Neurological Conditions, helping them live safe, independent, and fulfilling lives.

Why Join Us?

At Dudley, we are ambitious for our residents and our workforce. Our Disability Service focuses on enabling individuals to achieve positive outcomes in all areas of life — from education and employment to independent living, relationships, and community inclusion. We are committed to:

  • Empowering choice and control for disabled people
  • Raising aspirations through inclusive and forward-thinking support
  • Supporting staff wellbeing and career development
  • Promoting a positive workplace culture through flexible working and ongoing training

Your Role

As a Senior Social Worker, you will play a key leadership role in delivering assessments and interventions that promote independence, inclusion, and person-centred planning. You’ll help to develop a “whole life” approach to disability support and ensure individuals and their carers receive coordinated and compassionate care.

What We’re Looking For

We are seeking applicants who:

  • Have extensive experience and expertise in social work practice
  • Bring a strength-based, person-centred approach to their work
  • Are motivated and collaborative, with a desire to innovate and improve services
  • Have knowledge and understanding of relevant legislation and safeguarding responsibilities
  • Are confident supporting adults and their carers to navigate complex care needs

Working Arrangements

This is an agile role, with an expectation of at least two days per week based in the office to maintain team collaboration and service delivery.
