An exciting opportunity has arisen for a registered social worker to join the East Ross Adult Social care Team. This permanent full-time position of 37.5 hours per week will enable the right candidate the opportunity to be part of a fully integrated adult social care service in a supportive environment within NHS Highland.
As part of an integrated care team, we provide a multi-disciplinary approach to assessing the needs of individuals and carers within the East Ross area. Ideally the right candidate will already have experience in Adult Support and Protection and be trained in the Council Officer role.

The right candidate will be able to demonstrate a strong commitment to social work values and principles and apply these to practice.
