Hours per week: 37 hours
Location: Homeworking/LD North – Parkside, Bromsgrove

The Role
If you’re an experienced Learning Disability social worker looking for a role where your professional judgement is trusted and your expertise is valued, this could be the opportunity for you.
You’ll work with adults with a learning disability and their carers to complete Care Act assessments, develop strengths‑based support plans, and review outcomes that genuinely improve people’s lives. You’ll bring confident decision‑making to complex casework, including mental capacity assessments, Court of Protection work, safeguarding, and multi‑agency working. You’ll be part of a supportive, skilled service where reflective practice and proportionate, person‑centred approaches are embedded into everyday work.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
