Career Ambassadors

Our Ambassadors for Social Work and Social Care volunteer their time to share their insights and experience within the profession. They work closely with schools, colleges, universities, employers and the Social Care Council to inspire a new generation to join the workforce – people who have the right attitudes and values.

Ambassadors highlight the range of different career opportunities that are available and share their own personal career journey.
