Who are we?

Established in the middle of the pandemic in autumn 2020, The Recruitment Junction is a Christian charity, operating as the first recruitment agency in the north east to place people with criminal convictions into paid work. Our vision is to push back on regional unemployment, as we see ex-offenders rediscover a sense of purpose through work, becoming role models who will drive positive generational impact across their families.

This is already unfolding in such exciting ways – as a start-up charity operating in a recession, we have received grant funding and been awarded significant contracted commissions from a variety of private and public sources, that is propelling our growth at a much faster pace than anticipated. Many local and national employers are trusting us to fill their vacancies, and most importantly have given second chances and paid jobs to 85 people with convictions so far, even in the midst of repeated lockdowns. The majority of those we’ve helped into work till now are at the older end of the workforce, or have committed more serious crimes – in any other world, not the easy-to-place or ‘low-hanging fruit’ – and all the more rewarding, and impactful, as a result.

The Recruitment Junction is committed to offering a genuinely inclusive welcome to all, regardless of sexuality, gender and gender identification, age, disability, ethnicity and creed. We are founded upon Christian ethos and values and it is expected that this ethos will sit comfortably with anyone choosing to be a part of the organisation.

Overview of the main tasks

Interviewing ex-offenders face-to-face, to assess their work-readiness, offering 1:2:1 job coaching, booking them onto short vocational courses as required, supporting them to find good quality and meaningful work; also offering 6-months in-work mentoring support once they are placed in a job

Re-writing CVs and preparing letters of disclosure

Assisting with job search, application forms and mock interview practice

Proactively approaching local employers to find vacancies that match your caseload of candidates, with a view to securing interviews and job offers for them

Who are you?

The right person for this role will be a confident self-starter who doesn’t generally take no for an answer! You will enjoy engaging with people from all walks of life – as much at ease in the boardroom as on the streets, as the saying goes.

There is no “set type” of work experience that would qualify you for the job, but we would expect you to have worked for at least 3-5 years already. Or you may be at a much more advanced stage in your working life and be looking for a complete role change.

You will certainly find the idea of talking to people with convictions something which fills you with compassion, and a practical desire to see them move on with their life, and above all a strong belief that they can. You will be undaunted by the prospect of ‘cold-calling’ an unknown employer, to advocate passionately as to why their firm should consider hiring your candidate.

If it sounds like you could play your part in making this happen – please get in touch and tell us what resonates the most with you in this job description.

*Some of our candidates have a legal restriction against having a female caseworker, hence the need to add another male to our team.

We are looking for 2 x Helpline Advisors

Background information
Jo's Cervical Cancer Trust is the UK's leading charity dedicated to those affected by cervical cancer and cell changes (abnormalities). The charity was established in 1999 by James Maxwell following the death of his wife Jo, aged 40, from cervical cancer.
Since then we have provided advice and support to thousands of women and their families.
We offer a range of online and face-to-face support and information including: information materials, a free helpline, online forum, national and regional support days and an ‘ask the expert’ service. Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancer amongst young women (under 35) in the UK and Europe.
Two women a day in the UK will die from cervical cancer whilst over 3,000 women are diagnosed each year. In addition, some 220,000 a year are told they may have a cervical abnormality that may require treatment. Thanks to the NHS Cervical Screening and HPV vaccination programmes cervical cancer is a largely preventable disease. However, for those affected, the impact of cancer on a woman's life and that of her family cannot be overstated.
In recent years awareness of our work and cervical cancer has grown significantly with annual income from £288k to £1.8m. The staff team has also significantly grown to 23 enabling us to reach more women than ever before.
Over the past few years our work has been recognised a number of times including winning a prestigious GSK IMPACT Award, Best Communications Campaign at the Third Sector Excellence Awards and a Plain English Osborne Memorial Award for our website, we have also achieved Investing in Volunteers accreditation.

Overview of the role
Purpose of Job
We are looking for two passionate part time Helpline Advisors to join our hardworking but friendly team in order to provide vital support, information and signposting via our helpline.

You will also be responsible for offering team support on our email service, which is an extension of our helpline and our busy Ask the Expert service which provides online medical clarification to our community as well as our online Forum. The ideal candidate will be self-motivating and a clear communicator with a proven track record of strong helpline and supportive skills.
