Social Services at Flintshire County Council
A Breath of Fresh Air
When was the last time you thought about how refreshingly different your day had been? When was the last breakthrough moment you had that remind you why you chose to work in social care in the first place. These moments happen at Flintshire and they change lives for the better.
Trust. It’s at the heart of the way we think. The way we act. And it gives everyone the freedom to make independent decisions. Location. We think you’ll agree, there’s nowhere as stunning as Flintshire.
From children to adults, from the coastline to the countryside and from on site to in court, the sheer variety of places you will work in and people you will work is different to anywhere else. And with autonomy to challenge back and create innovate solutions to take people forward, the difference at Flintshire is clear. Combine this with the support of a connected team and the opportunity to connect with other organisations, and you’ll soon see a future of learning, development and opportunity. The Flintshire population is small. The Flintshire opportunity in Social Services is huge.
