Children are at the heart of everything we do and we have been embedding a new approach to help support the children of Surrey. We are a team of dedicated professionals here at Surrey helping to drive Surrey's new family centred approach to tackling the causes of children being in need or at risk.
All social workers in Surrey receive regular high quality, reflective supervision by experienced Team Managers. Additionally, those with less experience will be mentored and supported in their casework by Advanced Social Workers. Joining us as a Senior Social Worker you will hold a range of complex cases within a manageable caseload.
Are you a registered, qualified Social Worker with Social Work England (or equivalent)?
We are recruiting Social Workers, Senior Social Workers, Advanced Social Workers across the following teams:
- Assessment Service
- Family Safeguarding Service

To recognise your exceptional skills and talent we offer £35,382 - £39,246 per annum for Social Workers and £40,227 - £44,619 per annum Senior Social Workers and Advanced Social Workers; salary dependent on level of experience.
Advanced Social Worker is a newly developed role in Surrey's Children Services. While holding a significantly lower-case load of complex cases in our Assessment, Looked after Children Teams or Safeguarding Teams, you will be supporting the Team Manager to develop Social Workers who have less experience in the field. This is an opportunity for you to progress your career in social work while not entering a management role. You will have the opportunity to join in County Wide learning activities organised by the Surrey Children's Service Academy. You will have continuous professional development with a clear professional development pathway.
