Are you looking for a job that truly matters? Then imagine the satisfaction of helping someone rebuild their life through work. As an Employment Adviser, that’s the kind of positive change you could create every day. This isn’t just a job; it’s an opportunity to offer real support and guide people over the hurdles that are stopping them from finding employment.

The role offers a lot of variety, as you’ll be supporting individuals from all walks of life, including those who might have been out of the workforce for many years – perhaps even two or three decades. You’ll find yourself drawing on different skills, sometimes offering guidance on housing or finances, always with the focus firmly on the individual you’re supporting. It’s all about understanding their unique situation and needs. Your key aim will be to help people become ready and confident to find work.

This work is ideal for those with a strong sense of social responsibility and a genuine desire to help people into employment. We value people who can build strong relationships and have a real understanding of individual circumstances.

You can look forward to a flexible working environment that supports a good work-life balance. You’ll be working with a team who are understanding and empathetic. For your future, there are good prospects for moving around the organisation and exploring different roles, and many of our team have progressed their careers here. We also have a very stable team, which suggests people enjoy working here and tend to stay. If you’re driven by a desire to help others and are looking for a role where you can make a tangible difference and grow professionally, this could be a great fit for you.
