Adult Social Care

Calling all Social Workers and Senior Practitioners

Are you a qualified Social Worker or Senior Practitioner in Adult Services? We want to hear from you.

It’s a fantastic time to join Adult Services. We have an exciting programme of transformation ahead where you’ll have the opportunity to work with us and the people who use our services, to collaborate and shape the services of the future.

Our new Neighbourhood Model will bring together expertise from a wide range of areas for a more person-centred approach to increase residents’ personal resilience and confidence as well as addressing key health and social needs.

Hackney is one of London’s best boroughs. It’s one of the most sought after areas to live in London with fantastic schools, great transport links and vibrant, diverse communities.

It’s also a great place to work with a working environment which is stimulating, fast moving and supportive.

“Hackney Adult Social Care gave me the opportunity to develop my career. I came to Hackney as a student social worker and I am now a manager, trained practice educator and best interest assessor with experience in working  across the organisation. I’d strongly recommend Hackney as a place to develop your career.”

With a generous holiday allowance, flexible working and great support for your professional development, you can understand why the Local Government Chronicle says Hackney has redefined the standards of what councils can achieve.

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 and applications from disabled people.

We are also working towards our vision, which is to be a place for everyone; where residents and staff 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 and Inclusive.
