Our client, Salford Council, is looking for a Adult social Worker to join their Mental Health Team.

We are wishing to recruit two experienced social workers to act as Mental Health Commissioning and Review Officers within Salford's community mental health services. The postholders will be based within Prescott House Community Mental Health Team (CMHTs) situated in the Little Hulton area and Ramsgate House situated in the Lower Broughton area. The primary focus will be upon completing 12 month statutory reviews of mental health care packages in accordance with Care Act and s.117 Mental Health Act.

Mental health Adult Social Care is delivered in Salford in accordance with local s.75 arrangements. This results in mental health social workers being based within integrated and multi-disciplinary community teams within Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust.

You will need to have good interpersonal skills, experience of delivering the relevant social care statutory functions, be committed to providing a person centred and strengths based approach and be able to work efficiently / flexibly to meet the needs of the service.
