* Working within integrated Community Mental Health Teams (CMHTs), with one post based at Prescott House in Little Hulton and the other at Ramsgate House in Lower Broughton.
* Delivering essential social care statutory functions as part of Salford's Section 75 arrangements, embedded within Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust.
* Collaborating closely with other Review Officers to ensure efficient and effective service delivery across all CMHTs in Salford.

* A commitment to a person-centred and strengths-based approach to social work practice.
* The ability to work efficiently and flexibly to meet the diverse needs of the service.
* A full UK driving license and access to a car are essential, as you'll need to travel regularly around Salford and to out-of-area boroughs for placements.
