Dear …………,

In response to your recent advertisement on the Dayjob.com website for a Social Worker, I would like to be considered for the position and have attached my resume with this letter for your kind consideration.

I am a non-judgemental Social Worker who is understanding of other people’s lifestyles and always distinguishes between the individual and their behaviour.

With my ability to ensure that service users are provided with the right support at the right time, I feel I would be a perfect fit for your position.

My past experience of protecting vulnerable people from harm or abuse and supporting people to live independently, fits extremely well with the requirements of your vacancy. In particular I want to highlight my ability to help people on the fringes of society by making them feel valued and respected. This is something I do by encouraging them to take advantage of opportunities and become more involved in the society around them.

My extensive experience of fostering regulations, childcare law and safeguarding issues is well documented in the attached resume. In it you will see that I am someone who gets results. All of this is on top of my ability to ‘work the system’. My key strengths include;

  • Assisting children who need to live apart from their families.
  • Represent the social services departments, clients, and carers views at a range of meeting.
  • Strengthening local knowledge and community ties.
  • Work as part of a multi-disciplinary team.

Since 2020 I have been employed by …………. On an average day I will develop effective working relationships with team members, professionals in other agencies and other colleagues in the organisation. I am a trusted member of the department who is relied upon to make sound decisions for vulnerable service users. As per your vacancy requirements, I have a reputation for maintaining accurate, up-to-date, and accountable professional administrative records.

Through my career I have gained experience of working for local authorities, charities, voluntary organisations, and nursing homes. The work that I do with my present employer has equipped me to be non-judgemental, and always listen to both sides of a story before drawing any conclusion.

On a personal level, I have the patience needed to successfully deal with complex cases and clients who may not progress as expected. Furthermore, I am strongly committed to my own personal development and regularly attend training sessions, classes, and briefings, so as to keep my knowledge of legislation, research, practice developments and procedures up to date.

Right now, I want to join a reputable organisation like yours that has an excellent pension scheme, good staff holiday entitlement and an enlightened working environment where employees get along.

To help you make a decision on my application I have attached my most recent resume with this letter. I very much hope you will be in touch with me within the next few days as regards an interview and I would like to remind you that I can be contacted directly either on my mobile…………… or by email on …………………………

Yours sincerely,
