About Citizens Advice Camden
We are a well-respected local charity with more than 80 years’ experience of delivering free, independent and impartial information, advice and casework services which meet the changing needs of local residents. Our aims are to provide the independent, impartial, confidential and free advice people need for the problems they face and to improve the policies and practices that affect people’s lives.
We target our services at the most vulnerable in our community. Our client profile closely matches local indices of deprivation with most of our clients coming from the most deprived wards in the borough. We identify trends to ensure our services remain agile and able to respond to changing and emerging advice needs.
About the Role
This is an exciting opportunity to work in a well-regarded and innovative project contributing to achieving good outcomes for some of the most vulnerable families in England and beyond whose sick children are being treated at Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital (GOSH.) We also provide an ‘open door’ service to our GOSH partners such as social workers and family support officers in our areas of expertise.
We offer this as either a Trainee Adviser or Adviser role depending on your current advice work experience. As this is a short-term contract, if you are not currently an experienced generalist adviser, we would still expect you to have some experience of delivering generalist advice. We will support you through the Citizens Advice adviser training programme whilst you build your skills to deliver high quality advice and casework to families with children who are patients at GOSH. We will train you to deliver holistic advice and in-depth casework support, particularly with benefits including appeals and also with housing and debt enquiries.
Being available onsite is an important aspect of this role and so this role is hybrid working. The exact split between remote/onsite working will be by agreement with the line manager and to meet the needs of the project which could change over time. This role is not suitable for remote working only.
Appointment to the role is subject to being granted GOSH honorary staff status and a satisfactory enhanced DBS.
