What makes Staffscanner different:
Led by lived experience – our roots are in social care.
Faster, smarter matching – our tech connects you with the right roles instantly.
Training that fits you – free CPD-accredited courses, online and flexible.
Ongoing support – from registration through to your first day and beyond.
Transparency and trust – simple processes, honest conversations.

You’ll be part of a supportive, learning-focused service with strong leadership, structured supervision, and a positive working culture.
This is a hybrid position — you’ll work partly from home but will be expected to attend the office weekly and travel around the county as needed.

WHAT’S ON OFFER:

• £44,420 annual salary
• Permanent, full-time contract
• Flexible, hybrid working
• Ongoing professional development and training
• Supportive team culture with structured supervision
• The opportunity to make a real difference in a beautiful part of the country
