Job Description

Liquid Personnel is recruiting a Children’s Social Worker to join its client’s Disabled Children’s team, based in Devon.

An excellent opportunity has arisen for an experienced Social Worker to join the Disabled Children’s Service in South Devon. This is a full-time position (37 hours, Monday–Friday) offering a balance of home and office working, with attendance in Totnes required for duty days (minimum 1–2 days per week) and visits across the locality.

What will your responsibilities be?

You will hold a caseload of children and young people, including CIN, CP and Children in Care, with a focus on children with disabilities. The role involves statutory casework, assessments, care planning and multi-agency working to ensure safeguarding and positive outcomes.

Benefits:

• Competitive rate up to £38 per hour
• £150 per week accommodation/commuter allowance (subject to eligibility – currently in place until March 2026)
• Hybrid working model
• Beautiful South Devon location

Qualifications and Experience:

To be successful in this role you must have;

• Minimum 3 years’ post-qualifying experience
• Current Social Work England registration
• Recent/ongoing CIN/CP/LAC case-holding experience (Children with Disabilities experience desirable)
• Full UK driving licence and access to own vehicle

Due to the rural nature of Devon, travel is essential and public transport will not be sufficient for visits.

If you are an experienced children’s social worker seeking a well-paid contract with a generous weekly allowance to support relocation or commuting costs, this is a strong opportunity to consider.
