This is an exciting opportunity to begin your social work career in a supportive team that works with children and young people with disabilities who require ongoing support, safeguarding and intervention. You will build experience working with children in need, those who are looked after, and children subject to child protection plans, helping to improve outcomes through relationship-based, child-centred practice.
Working closely with families, education, health professionals and partner agencies, you will contribute to assessments, care planning and effective interventions that ensure children’s voices are heard and their needs are met. As part of the wider Support and Safeguarding Service, you will develop strong working relationships with colleagues across Children’s Services and the 18–25 Moving on Service, supporting young people through key transitions.
Our structured ASYE programme will provide you with the support and development needed to thrive. You will benefit from twice-monthly supervision with a dedicated ASYE Development Manager, regular practice guidance, protected learning opportunities and a comprehensive training programme designed to help you grow in confidence and capability throughout your first year in practice. The team works county-wide with access to offices across Wiltshire, and regular travel may be required.
Join us and start your career in a service committed to achieving the best possible outcomes for children and young people with disabilities.

Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Our hybrid working model means office staff are on site for at least half their hours, community-based staff carry out at least half their admin time in a workplace, and customer-facing roles work entirely from their service location.
We are committed to creating a workplace where positive relationships thrive and everyone feels engaged, supported and able to do their best. We do not tolerate discrimination, bullying or harassment. Everyone is expected to promote a culture of inclusion, dignity, trust and respect, guided by our vision and Our Identity.

Submission of unsolicited CVs or candidate details to the Council, whether directly or to individual employees, will not be considered as an introduction and will not create any obligation on the Council to pay any fees.

Agencies wishing to work with the Council must do so only via our approved procurement processes and neutral vendor arrangements.
