We want social work to thrive — professionally, culturally and operationally — and we invest in creating an environment where practitioners feel confident, supported and able to make a difference. Working in close partnership with health, the voluntary sector and our wider communities, we are continually developing our services to respond to the evolving needs of Oxfordshire’s residents. This is a unique opportunity to join us at a senior level and play a central role in shaping the future of adult social care practice across the county.

Your work will ensure that the voice of the people we support is embedded in practice and that learning from audits, reviews and lived experience directly informs how we improve services.

The role combines strategic influence with tangible impact. You will lead the development of our adult social care practice framework, working with partners to shape the future of practice, while also driving workforce excellence through oversight of professional development, career pathways and learning. You will champion strengths-based, legally literate and confident social work, ensuring it remains visible and valued at every level.

Beyond the organisation, you will represent Oxfordshire at regional and national Principal Social Worker networks, bringing sector insight back into the council and ensuring we continue to learn, evolve and deliver the best possible outcomes for residents.

About You

You will be an experienced and credible social work leader, with a strong track record of influencing practice, leading improvement and working at a strategic level within Adult Social Care. You will bring a deep understanding of statutory social work responsibilities, alongside a genuine passion for strengthening practice and supporting others to deliver excellent outcomes.

You are comfortable operating at pace and at scale, able to balance strategic thinking with a clear focus on real-world impact. You are skilled in bringing people together, building strong relationships across organisational boundaries and ensuring that practice is informed by both evidence and lived experience.
