Adults Hospital Discharge Social Worker

Flexible Working | Permanent Onboarding Support | Range of Benefits

Looking for a role where you can breathe, grow, and feel genuinely valued? We’re offering an exciting opportunity within a fast‑paced Transfer of Care / Hospital Discharge Team, where your work has an immediate and meaningful impact.

At Leaders in Care, we understand the commitment and challenges that come with a career in social work. That’s why we work with the onboarding teams to help give you a smooth transition into a stable permanent role.

This role also comes with great benefits - including hybrid working. Enjoy up to two days a week from home, giving you the flexibility to balance work with your personal and family life.

You’ll be working in a dynamic hospital setting supporting timely and safe discharges. The service operates across a 200‑bed pathway, where individuals are supported to return home with packages of care, with the option for re‑referral if ongoing support is required.

Your role will involve completing assessments within 14–28 days, undertaking 6–12 week reviews, and contributing to a light‑touch triage system that ensures people receive the right level of support at the right time. You’ll play a key role in ensuring smooth transitions from hospital to home, promoting independence and reducing readmissions.

You’ll be joining a collaborative and supportive multidisciplinary team, working closely with healthcare professionals to deliver person‑centred discharge planning and ongoing care.

Expect a positive team culture where your voice is heard, your development is supported, and your wellbeing is prioritised.

As this is a statutory role, you must be a qualified Social Worker and registered with Social Work England.
