Jobs at Oxfordshire County Council

Proud to care to support residents' independence

Supporting Oxfordshire’s residents through care. We work with care providers across Oxfordshire to support residents' independence.

Be proud to care

As a partnership, we're ensuring more people live well by receiving the right care at the right time. 

Working with care providers means you're part of our countywide social care network – a network that is proud to care. Flexible working, free training, and excellent career opportunities all help make it a great choice.

Social care is not all about hands-on personal care

You could be based in a residential home or local community. You could be working with people with substance misuse issues, a learning disability, or who need mental health support. You may want a support role in administration or IT.

The variety of roles makes a career in adult social care the place to be. The difference is you'll be making a real difference.
