Pro Social Partners

Pro Social Partners is a specialist permanent recruitment partner for social work and social care. We work with local authorities, fostering agencies, children's homes, residential services and charities across England, placing experienced social workers, senior practitioners, team managers, registered managers and heads of service into the roles that have stayed open too long.

Most of the people we place are not on job boards. They are settled, quietly open to the right move and never see the advert. We headhunt them, we call every candidate within a day, we hold the process to a timeline and we stay in contact from offer right through to the first weeks in post, because that gap is where most permanent hires are lost.

Over 600 permanent placements so far across children's, adults, fostering and residential services. Two frontline posts a council could not fill were both offered within two weeks of coming to us. A West Midlands authority handed us its frontline vacancies exclusively and eight permanent social workers later the service is a great deal more settled.

If you lead a service and keep losing permanent hires, message the page or email [email protected] with the role and we will tell you honestly within a day whether we can fill it.

Every Tuesday our founder Conor Clarke publishes The Permanent Hire, one fix a week for one leak in social care recruitment. Follow the page and subscribe for it.
