When you register with Pertemps Social Care, you can be sure you’re in good hands.
Temporary Social Workers
We know that the freedom and flexibility of temporary assignments is particularly attractive to some of our social workers.
Types of roles we recruit candidates for:
Adult Social Care
Children's Social Care
If you think about it, a social worker’s remit is simple: to focus on the person and their circumstances. They are interested in the factors that have a bearing on the person’s situation and outlook and they’re also responsible for helping them bring about change to improve their life chances.
Permanent Roles
When you register with Pertemps Social Care, you can be sure you’re in good hands. Your consultant’s first priority will be to understand exactly what you’re looking for. They’ll take a strategic, expert view of the available opportunities and the impact they could have on your career.
Temporary Roles
We know that the freedom and flexibility of temporary assignments is particularly attractive to some of our social workers. They like being their own boss, and the opportunities to gain experience within different teams.
We never lose sight of what really matters: Providing an outstanding service to candidates and clients who provide help to society’s most vulnerable children and adults.
Pertemps Social Care is a recruitment agency with a difference. When Andrew Anastasiou started out in December 2016 he based the business on the principles of the public services and gold-standard customer service. He was determined to hand-pick consultants to build long-term relationships and act as trusted partners to their clients and candidates in the health and social care sector.
Working with the best technology, tools and data analytics in the industry, Pertemps Social Care has grown rapidly and is proud to retain its original values: a commitment to honest relationships, to being ambitious for ourselves and others and simply providing the best possible service.
Pertemps Social Care has a diverse client base across the UK and regularly places social workers within public and private organisations throughout the UK, but there is still room for growth and improvement. Our vision is to lead the way in social care recruitment and to continue to build a reputation for high standards and an empathetic approach to recruitment. Most of all, Pertemps Social Care consultants never lose sight of what really matters: an outstanding service to candidates and clients who provide help to society’s most vulnerable children and adults, in often very tough and challenging circumstances.

Mental Health Social Worker: Key Responsibilities and Skills
Mental health social workers play a critical role in the healthcare system, providing support, advocacy, and treatment to individuals facing mental health challenges. As the demand for mental health services continues to grow in the UK, social workers have become essential in helping individuals manage mental health conditions, navigate resources, and access care.
The Importance of Mental Health for Social Care Professionals
On Mental Health Day, it’s essential to focus on an often overlooked aspect of the social care sector: the mental health of the professionals who dedicate their lives to helping others. Social care professionals work tirelessly to support individuals through challenging and often traumatic circumstances, but in doing so, they frequently face their own emotional and psychological hurdles.
