Work base: Coed Pella / Hybrid

As one of the largest employers in the area, Conwy County Borough Council is proud to deliver high-quality services that support and strengthen local communities. We are looking for a motivated and dedicated individual to join our close knit, supportive team within the Vulnerable People’s Service, as a full-time Section Manager.

This is an exciting opportunity to work within a social care setting, working across Children’s and Adult’s services. You will have oversight of all transition work for care leavers, in addition to overseeing the Deputy’s Unit and DoLS team who support some of our most vulnerable people in the community. You will work in partnership with other service areas and stakeholders using a collaborative and person-centred approach with a strong focus on progression and outcome-focused planning.

The role will lead and support our Team Managers and practitioners to meet the Council’s duties under the Social Services and Wellbeing Act 2014, ensuring that people have the right support at the right time. The successful candidate will be proactive in looking at new ways of addressing issues to promote best practice. Strong communication, organisational and partnership working skills are essential, along with a compassionate and person-centred approach.

You will be supported through regular formal supervision and a range of ongoing development opportunities, alongside a strong team ethos that values support, learning and professional growth.

Due to the nature of the post, the successful candidates will be subject to a disclosure by the Disclosure and Barring Service.

Join us and be part of a team making a real difference to the lives of people across Conwy.

This role offers flexible working options for a work life balance. This can include adjusting your working day and hybrid working, i.e. a balance of office and home working.

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.
