This is a mobile, community-based role designed for those who thrive on autonomy and complex casework.

The Role: Complexity and Autonomy

This position goes beyond basic care planning. You will manage a specialist caseload that requires sophisticated risk management and a strengths-based approach.

Clinical Leadership: Offer practice guidance to less experienced staff and supervise competency-based learners or students.

*

Integrated Working: Drive inter-disciplinary relationships to ensure seamless, cost-effective service delivery across Norfolk.

What We Are Looking For

To command the top-tier rate of £43.38ph, you must demonstrate:

*

Advanced Practice: Significant experience in Adult Social Care and deep knowledge of the Care Act 2014.

*

Risk Mastery: Proven ability to navigate complex family dynamics, conflict, and problematic safeguarding scenarios.

*

Professional Ambition: Candidates ready to undertake AMHP, BIA, or Practice Educator training are highly valued.

*

Mobility: A full driving license and access to a vehicle are essential for traveling across the county.

The Locum Advantage with SW Locums

*

Market-Leading Pay: One of the most competitive hourly rates currently available in the East of England.
