Everyone needs to be able to manage their money well, find work and access every facility to help them do so, including online services. Clean Slate, in partnership with Quids in!, is re-writing the rulebook on helping low income households to become better off. We are proudly different by:

Since lockdown, our teams in Bath, Glos and London have re-imagined service delivery as a remote, phone-based and online programme revolving around a money health-check and triage process, followed by help to follow up on recommended next steps. This has led to contracts with social landlords and the Dept of Work and Pensions, on top of core activities already underway.
We have further opportunities to expand in the West of England (Bath & North East Somerset, Bristol, South Glos and North Somerset), and require an Interim Regional Lead to help assess and realise the potential for growth here.

- Establish a sustainable presence in Bristol, networking and developing partnerships in the West of England that increase our reach and impact, and create opportunities for new contracts, commissions and funded programmes
- Explore and identify opportunities to meet the needs of local authorities (including the West of England Combined Authority), social landlords and DWP

To succeed in this role, you will need to be a skilled communicator, whether face to face or in writing. You must have an organised and structured approach to your work and have the ability to plan and manage your time to deliver to deadline. You must be an experienced manager with an approachable and supportive style, able to inspire, motivate and lead a team. You will need a flair for building strategic partnerships, drawing on your influencing and negotiation skills. You must be committed to delivering a high-quality service to service users, evaluating the impact of the work of the regional team and taking remedial action if necessary. The ideal candidate would also demonstrate an understanding of discrimination, equality and diversity issues, including those not set out in law such as the poverty premium. Knowledge of benefits and the welfare system would also be helpful, as would experience of delivering training or support to people from disadvantaged communities and diverse cultures. Above all, you must be committed to Clean Slate’s vision and mission, empowering service users and promoting independence.
Although all Clean Slate staff are currently working from home, as soon as coronavirus restrictions allow you must be able to travel around the region to liaise with our partner agencies, to find and develop new partnerships and to visit staff at our Quids In centres.
