Join Our Adult Social Care Leadership Team – Champion Excellence in Practice
We have an exciting opportunity for a Principal Social Worker to join us!
We are recruiting a passionate and knowledgeable Principal Social Worker to lead and influence professional social work practice across Adult Social Care at the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead. This important role is central to delivering our Social Care Futures vision and ensuring that our workforce is confident, skilled, and supported to deliver person-centred, strengths-based care.
This is a full-time, permanent role with hybrid working, and a salary of £53,296 - £58,286 per annum.
About us:
The Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead (RBWM) is set in the wider county of Berkshire, one of the most economically productive and innovative areas of the country. The borough council – a unitary authority - takes pride in its exceptional team of dedicated professionals who are passionate about providing quality services to the community. RBWM is a unique borough, with huge opportunity given its proximity to London and expanding business sectors, as well as being a major cultural and tourism area which includes international attractions such as Windsor Castle, Legoland and Ascot Racecourse.
Given our Royal connections, the eyes of the world are often on us and we continue to rise to the challenge.
It’s a great time to join RBWM. We’ve begun our transformation journey—Living Well Together—a vision shaped by staff that’s about helping residents live well and enabling our teams to work well together in a connected, compassionate, and forward-thinking environment. We’re investing in new roles, new technology, and enhanced learning and development to support our teams and improve outcomes.
Our latest staff survey shows:
92% of colleagues feel their work is meaningful
87% say their line manager demonstrates the council’s values
But don’t just take our word for it—watch our staff videos to hear directly from our teams about what it’s like to work here.
