Role Purpose

This is opportunity for an enthusiastic, energetic and motivated Assistant Team Leader with experience in Adult Social Care to join our recently formed Discharge Team based in the Borders General Hospital.

We are a multi-disciplinary team with both Social Work and NHS working in partnership with service users, carers, family members and external agencies to facilitate discharges from an acute hospital and Intermediate care settings.

Scottish Borders Council prides itself on being a great place to work where staff are trusted, valued and supported to make a positive contribution at work. We offer a competitive salary, generous Pension Scheme and annual leave entitlement as well as access to a number of additional employee benefits and a wide range of learning and development opportunities.

Essential

Recognised professional qualification in social work, nursing, occupational therapy. A current driving licence and use of a vehicle is an essential requirement of this post.

* If you have a disability which precludes you from holding a drivers licence, Scottish Borders Council will take into account its responsibility to make reasonable adjustments to allow for your disability. Should it be possible to make such an adjustment in order that you can undertake the travel responsibilities of the post, this will be taken into account in consideration for this role.
