  • There will be days covering AMHP duties which may include Friday's and also some casework.
  • Candidates must be registered with Social Care Wales and be able to start within two weeks of any offer of contract.
  • We are looking for team members who can work on their own initiative and provide regular updates on their activities and progress to the Team Manager and Deputy Team Manager.
