About the role

Universal Health Services is seeking a Lead Social Worker to oversee treatment activities, assessments, and discharge planning across hospital units. This role requires strong leadership and clinical expertise to guide the multidisciplinary team in delivering safe, patient-centered care. You will supervise unit social workers, participate in case management, and coordinate with external providers, ensuring compliant documentation and effective discharge planning.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
