Job description

Remedy Recruitment Group are currently seeking an experienced Qualified Social Worker to work within Hackney Councils Learning Disabilities Team.

Job Purpose

  • This role is in the Intensive Support Team of the Integrated Learning Disabilities Service. IST works with people with learning disabilities and mental health difficulties, generally at the point of crisis, and longer term work including forensic work.
  • Hackney is one of the UK's highest performing local authorities, serving one of London's best places to live and work. We have achieved a huge amount: our services, our schools, our public spaces are all amongst the very best. We have changed the reputation, not just of the Council, but of Hackney itself.
  • Bringing jobs and investment into the borough, securing the legacy from the 2012 Games, and making this a place of which we can all be proud. We are also working towards our vision, which is to be a place for everyone; where residents and the workforce can be proud; a place that celebrates diversity and where everyone can feel valued, included and involved.
  • In order to achieve this, we look for people who are: Proud; Ambitious; Pioneering; Open; Proactive; Inclusive. Hackney Council works to eradicate discrimination on the basis of race, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, pregnancy and maternity, age and marital status.
  • We also recognise that people can be disadvantaged by their social and economic circumstances, so we will also work to eliminate discrimination and disadvantage caused by social class. We also welcome those interested in flexible working. We particularly welcome applications from disabled people, as this group is currently under represented in our workforce.
