Our Directorate: Who We Are and What We Do

At our directorate, we offer a range of services for adult care, housing, and public health. Our highly skilled and knowledgeable teams are dedicated to providing the best support possible for our residents.

Our Commitment to Continuous Improvement in Adult Social Care

We're always striving to improve our programs and strategies, and we're committed to supporting newly qualified social carers through our Assessed Year in Practice (ASYE) Program. We also offer a clear career pathway for those who want to assess and review support needs, and our Rising Stars program identifies talented individuals and provides training and mentorship opportunities. If you want a career in direct care, we have plenty of opportunities for that as well.

About Rotherham

We are proud of Rotherham as a place to live as well as work, with its historic Town Centre, country parks, woodlands, and nature reserves.

Rotherham is well connected to the other fine towns and cities in South Yorkshire both by road and by a comprehensive public transport network, including the UK’s first tram-train connecting Rotherham and Sheffield, pioneering cleaner, greener ways to travel.
