Using Anonymous Recruitment

Our family support workers really focus on what we do at a grass roots level. Providing support to families on a daily basis as well as supporting and coordinating volunteers. Prior work with children and families is advantageous as is some knowledge of bereavement. However, full training and support will be given to the successful candidate.
Bereavement support is a challenging area of work, but also extremely fulfilling whether as a long-term career, or to develop experience and knowledge that can be transfered into other roles within the education, health and social care sectors. Attitude and aptitude are as important as prior skills and experience.
The ability to communicate through the medium of Welsh would also be an advantage to this position or the willingness to learn.
This post is to support existing staff. As such it could be based anywhere within South Wales.
This post is offered on a full or part-time basis (Minimum three days per week)
Please apply with a CV and supporting statement which highlights relevant experience and skills for the role. If you would like an informal discussion about the charity or the role before applying then please do get in touch where we can arrange a time for a call.
