Carmarthenshire County Council has launched a campaign to recruit experienced social workers into their teams across the county.
With ‘love where you live and work’ as the key focus of the campaign, Carmarthenshire County Council is looking to encourage qualified and experienced social workers to make the move and seek a better quality of life for themselves and their families.
This includes highlighting the best of what Carmarthenshire has to offer and the many benefits of living and working in the county such as breath-taking scenery, vibrant nightlife, exciting days out and a family friendly atmosphere.
Online information sessions will take place over several evenings throughout September and into October (Tuesday 11 September – Monday 7 October), giving anyone looking for more information to learn more about the salary, benefits and lifestyle in Carmarthenshire. More specific information is also available with one-to-one sessions and can include information on housing, schools, health and social care and much more.
With vacancies in their adults, children’s and integrated services teams, the Council is also looking to target qualified social workers from areas surrounding Carmarthenshire.
Cllr Jane Tremlett, Cabinet Member for Health and Social Services said:
“Our new recruitment campaign looks to entice qualified social workers from areas across the UK to consider a career in Carmarthenshire and to make the move to our fantastic county.
We have a proud tradition of growing our own social workers here in Carmarthenshire, but alongside this we are seeking experienced social workers to join our teams and help make a difference to the lives of children and adults.”
With well supported teams and a good work/life balance, I would encourage anyone interested in learning more to sign up to one of our informal online information sessions where they can learn more.”
