An ambitious, well-established charity that helps people facing adversity to find jobs, homes and the right support they need.

And, when it comes to developing new sessions, training and session materials in partnership with the Service’s Team Leaders, working closely with the Willow Team (Working with Exploited Children) or travelling across the county to get the job done, again, we’ll count on you. 

What we are looking for:

• To have lived, personal experience of the Criminal Justice System, and/or being involved in a gang or knife crime

• A confident public speaker/mentor with experience of partnership working who can coordinate a project without a team around them 

• Someone who is comfortable working alongside a variety of professionals in a Children’s Services team

• A relevant qualification, or willingness to work towards one, plus knowledge of safeguarding practices and policies

• Strong IT skills and the ability to use and develop monitoring systems to record all aspects of work

• A full current driving licence and willingness to travel across Hampshire as required

In return, you can expect a competitive salary, generous leave allowance, access to clinical supervision, staff pension, flexible working, a mentoring programme, an advice and counselling service, season ticket loan and much more.
