Job Introduction
We are seeking an experienced and motivated Team Manager with a strong social work background to lead our Assertive Outreach Team. We are looking for a manager who can bring a clear social work perspective to a fully integrated health and social care service, ensuring that social work values, strengths-based practice, safeguarding, human rights, and statutory responsibilities remain central to service delivery. You will be working in an integrated team representing Bradford Council working alongside the Bradford District Care NHS Foundation Trust.
The team brings together professionals from Bradford Council and Bradford District Care NHS Foundation Trust within a single integrated service. You will work collaboratively to provide coordinated and holistic support for people who are often difficult to engage due to the complexity of their mental health needs with psychosis, and people experiencing social issues such as homelessness, substance misuse, and other forms of social exclusion. The successful candidate will provide professional social work leadership and management oversight, ensuring that individuals receive seamless, person-centred support through integrated care planning and intervention.
