About HCL Social Care...
HCL Social Care has joined partnership with various Local Authorities including, London Borough of Ealing, Reading County Council, Royal Borough of Greenwich, London Borough of Waltham Forest, London Borough of Brent, Shropshire Council, Barking and Dagenham London Borough Council, and more, to help them with their recruitment process for International Qualified Social Workers. They are progressive and successful local authorities that have a proven track record of providing a wide range of high-quality services in a multi-cultural community. These Councils recognise the need to employ individuals with the highest level of training to ensure they are capable of maintaining their standards.
In recent years we have experienced rapid child population growth, well above the London and national averages. There has also been a large rise in the overall numbers of vulnerable children and young people in the boroughs. This environment is both rewarding and provides the opportunity for you to experience complex cases with ethnically diverse locations. They also offer a limitation of individual caseloads to ensure that social workers are well supported, with time to do their work, to produce the best outcomes for the individuals they support.
