Equally, the look to exercise a responsible influence on the development of social policies and services, both locally and nationally.

Aligned to the nationwide model, Citizens Advice St Helens provides free, independent, confidential and impartial advice to everyone on their rights and responsibilities.  It values diversity, promotes equality and challenges discrimination.  It provides the advice that people need for the problems they face, and it influences and improves the policies and practices that affect people’s lives in their local area. Their confidential, independent and free advice is available across a wide range of topics including debt, benefits, housing, employment, consumerism, travel, education, health and taxes.

The Chief Officer will lead and manage Citizens Advice St Helens while developing and implementing strategic and operational plans.

This role will require someone with a demonstrable track record of innovation and success in business development and income generation, specifically in bid and contract management where you will be skilled in creating strong and successful content for winning contracts/ grants. Your experience will be underpinned by excellent communication skills at both a strategic level within and outside the organisation.

Also, you must demonstrate an awareness and understanding of the issues that are faced by residents in St Helens such as poverty, unemployment and ill-health. These issues are not unique to St Helens and are faced across the UK and we are open to applications from people who have experience working with similar issues in other areas.
