I would recommend you to have a look at -  which is a legit source for the job seekers. In most cases, you would require a job offer so that the Canadian government can accept your stay for the long term.

Besides, go through 

Thank you for your advice this is where I start my journey 🙂 many thanks again

The information  on the websites is not clear as I'm unsure if need work permit as my employment is not in the list and on skilled workers limits amount days a week can work so confusing! I was told that social work is classed as an emergency service ? Not sure about this either no information online to confirm this for me?

My observations and suggestions are,

1.) Just find the suitable jobs from that job bank website which I shared earlier and start sending your resume, experience etc. - Make sure that you have a well-written Cover letter, Resume with precise details & a catchy email subject.

"Social Worker" search word returns 759 job listings on

2.) LinkedIn is also a good way to touch with employers.

3.) If you have friends in Canada, check with them as well. Reference really matter to get a job.

4.) Find an organization which require your skills and experience(Google search using the keywords related to your profession) and write to them

5.) To make everything clear, contact a licensed immigration law firm I am sure they could help you out(I have been in touch with one if you want their contact feel free to reach on my PM). Besides, you can verify the law firm's license info from here -

I'm pretty sure that you will easily get a job thereby a work permit since you are from England. The only struggle for you is to get the right employer. The beginning is always hard, don't worry you will get .

Thank you so much for your advice I've already made 4 job applications and now looking at licensed immigration firms
