Vitalis are recruiting for an experienced Social Worker to work in an Adult Early Support Team in Manchester City Council.
We are thrilled to offer an exciting opportunity to join our Adult Early Support Team (AEST). This dynamic, rapidly expanding, and multidisciplinary team operates within Manchester Adult Care Services.
Our aim is to provide effective, strengths based support from the first point of contact, aiming to prevent, reduce, or delay the escalation of needs and promote the independence of Manchester residents, while contributing to the delivery of the city's prevention agenda.

We're looking for a dynamic, passionate, and innovative individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment and embraces change. If you're someone who thinks creatively and is committed to making a positive impact on the lives of Manchester residents, we'd love to hear from you.
You should bring experience from a social care setting, particularly in supporting adults facing complex challenges. Strong collaboration skills are essential, as you'll work closely with a range of on-site partners including social care teams, police, mental health professionals, occupational therapists, and voluntary sector organisations.
Required - 3 years reference, gaps in employment history checked, any relevant quals as per JDPS.

Don’t forget, if this role isn’t the perfect fit, we’re confident we can find one that is. We recruit across a wide range of public sector specialisms, including:

  • Independent Reviewing Officer (IRO)

  • Best Interest Assessor (BIA)

  • Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH)

  • Looked After Children (LAC)

  • Children’s Social Work

  • Adult Social Work

  • Service Manager
