I have found Sean and the team to always be extremely professional and supportive. There is always someone at the end of the phone to help me a query or issue, and I feel I am listened to. They have excellent knowledge of the specialist roles within social work and all the jobs they identified are appropriate for my role and skills set. I would recommend them to anyone.
I would like to send my sincere thanks to SW Locums for sending me a Christmas hamper.
It really is the most beautiful and thoughtful gesture and the contents are superb.
Myself and family will enjoy the Prosecco on Christmas day, and I will raise my glass to you and your family to wish you all a very Happy Christmas.
Thank you so much
Kind regards

SW Locums have sourced opportunities for me across the country, to my own desire.
My contracts have been able to flow seamlessly one to another, or with a break when I have wished. Allowing me to be in control of my working life.
I am not some statistic to them, there is a person who I know and who knows me, when I speak to them. They understand what I am looking for when I am seeking a new placement and they ensure they find me a best fit.

I registered with SW Locums looking for work and was blown away how attentive and knowledgeable they were. They found me a terrific post very quickly. Sean was excellent at keeping me updated through the application process and contacted me every time a possible vacancy arose which he thought might suit me.
I had been registered with a number of other high profile agencies in my 20years as an agency Social Worker. I have found SW Locums to be far and away the best.
I get paid accurately and faster than all my colleagues every week and can always get through to Sean anytime I need to.
Thank you so much for all you do.

Dear Terina,
Just to wish you, hubby and SW Locums for being fantastic since I came to know you in 2013. Thanks for supporting me throughout my social work career and with my development through different SW opportunities with local authorities .
My highs and my lows, even with Danielle, you have always been a listening ear who has encouraged me these past years. Also thanking you for Aden for your fantastic support and going over and beyond with securing good roles for him too. We’re so grateful!
I LOVEDDDD my Christmas hamper….I was not expecting it…..Aden naturally jealous !!! I ate the whole Christmas pud myself and did not share it with a soul
So here’s to 2021…wishing you a wonderful year ahead, in good health, happiness and success in all your exploits.
Love

I arrived in the uk from Ireland December 2012. I had qualified as a social worker in 2011, however had no paid social work experience.
Each agency I approached informed me that local authorities do not generally like to employ newly qualified social workers as agency staff as agency staff members are expected to hit the ground running.
SW Locums took the time to go through my cv and take into consideration all the experience I did have, although unqualified. They suggested that while I wait for my HCPC to come through that I look at social work assistant positions. They explained that this would allow me to work within a local authority and build a relationship with them.
I found this suggestion very helpful and SW Locums sourced an interview for me in a triage, mash and assessment team. I worked as a masher (researcher) while I awaited my hcpc registration for approximately 6 weeks, until I was hcpc registered and was then employed by the same local authority as a social worker.
Working in a local authority as an unqualified worker gave me the opportunity to learn the policies and structures of the agency, as well as building relationships with the team. I gained huge experience which has since benefited me throughout my social work career.
When I decided it was time to leave that local authority to gain a wider variety of experience, SW Locums were there to support me to find the perfect job.
I have always found SW Locums to be very friendly and helpful, taking into consideration the work I want and the geographical area.
I have recommended this agency to many of my friends/colleagues and would continue to do so.

Dear Sean,
I was absolutely blown away to come home to such a beautiful hamper!
Thank you so so much, Sean. You’re far to kind.
Never, in all the years that I’ve been temping (and you know from my CV that it’s been a lot) have I ever received anything that comes close to this. An Xmas card maybe, lol but nothing like this.
I am lost for words which is virtually impossible, my friend’s will back me up on that !
I really appreciate the gift and I am truly, truly touched.
SW Locums is such a unique agency and I’ve never felt more like an actual person than I have since joining yours.
Thanks for everything Sean.
I wish you a very Merry Xmas and an even Happier New Year
Warmest Regards,
