Welcome to the inaugural episode of The Social Work Pivot! In this episode, we explore the concept of career pivots, specifically tailored for experienced child and family social workers looking to make a strategic career change. Whether you’re contemplating a move up the professional ladder or considering stepping away from statutory social work altogether, this episode is your essential guide to understanding and planning your career pivot.
Introduction:
Social workers are leaving the profession at an alarming rate. According to a recent survey by Social Work England, 65% of social workers exiting the register have been in the field for six years or more. These experienced professionals possess invaluable skills, knowledge, and experience—assets that are being lost due to high caseloads, poor pay, and limited career progression opportunities. If this resonates with you, rather than leaving the profession entirely, consider leveraging your skills in a new way through a career pivot.
Today’s episode is sponsored by The Pivot Society, a membership programme and community for social workers like you who want to move up or out of social work. As a member, you’ll have access to our Community Forum, where you can share ideas and get support from other like-minded social workers in a safe space. You’ll also have access to a video library with essential skills to help you make your pivot, such as improving your CV, finding a new role, becoming an independent social worker, and exploring the best side hustles—all available at your own pace. Plus, join our monthly live coaching calls for the opportunity to ask questions and hear success stories from other society members. Visit thesocialworkpivot.com to join the waitlist and lock in a special, one-off monthly rate.
