Dear …………,

From reading the job advert on the Dayjob.com website I understand that you are looking for an enthusiastic Social Worker to become part of your winning team.

My ambition matches your ambition to help vulnerable people.

I am a capable Social Worker who can judge the relative costs and benefits of potential social service and health care actions and choose the most appropriate one. I have the ability to build authentic and reliable professional relationships with vulnerable people so that I can support them and motivate them to be active citizens who thrive in life. I will always be there to provide support to impoverished communities and families that face societal issues like substance abuse, lack of education and violence.

What I feel really makes me unique is my communication skills, which enable me to effectively relay complex and sensitive information verbally and in writing to children, young people, and families in a diplomatic way. Another skill that I believe makes me different is my ability to spot the changing needs people with alcohol, drug, or other substance misuse problems.

With my current employer I work as part of a team of Children with Disabilities professionals, to ensure the development, delivery, and continuous improvement of specialist services to them. As part of my duties, I represent the Social Service department in magistrates, County and High Courts. I instruct solicitors, counsel, and expert witnesses, in care proceedings with appropriate authorisation. I work unsociable hours, and in certain settings this may include shift work.

Through my career I have gained extensive experience of being an advocate on behalf of children, young people, parents, carers, and families, supporting their access to services. I have learnt not to be afraid to challenge injustice, discrimination, and the lack of access to services.

On a personal level I can build excellent and effective relationships with other agencies and the local community. I always display compassion, empathy and integrity when mixing with other people and take great pride in what I do on a daily basis.

At this stage of my career, I want to join an organisation like yours that values equality and diversity across its workforce and aims to ensure its staff is reflective of the community it serves.

I’m very excited to learn more about your organisation and the work it does. Thank you very much for your time and attention. Please free to read the attached resume and reach out to me when you are available to arrange an interview. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours sincerely,
