About Us
King William County Department of Social Services seeks an energetic and versatile team player, committed to working towards the best outcomes possible for our families in the community to join our agency in a Family Services Specialist position.
King William County, Virginia offers the best of both worlds: the calm, scenic beauty of rural life with easy access to urban amenities. With a growing population of roughly 19,200 people, the area has a strong sense of community without the congestion of a big city. Nestled in the Middle Peninsula, King William lies just 30 miles northeast of Richmond, making for a manageable commute or day‐trip to the capital for work, culture, or dining. The landscape is lush and gently rolling, with rivers, farmland, and ample outdoor space — ideal if you appreciate nature, quiet roads, and neighbors who know your name. Housing is more affordable than many urban and suburban areas, the pace of life is peaceful, but you’re still close enough to schools, shops, healthcare, and the vibrant hubs of VA. If you’re looking for work where you can make a difference — and a place where balance matters — King William is a beautiful place to plant roots!
As an agency, we believe in the power of the team, exercising creativity and commitment in meeting the needs of our clients and community, and growing our agency and ourselves. Empathy and Work-Life harmony is an agency core value.
At King William DSS, we are looking for professionals who want more than a job— a career where empathy, character, and dedication are just as important as education and experience. If you are ready to join a mission-driven team that values flexibility, professional growth, and making a difference every single day, we want to hear from you.
