This is a fantastic opportunity to join a well-established charity supporting people with disabilities and long-term health conditions into sustainable employment. You’ll receive excellent training, work alongside a genuinely supportive team and develop a career where you can have a real impact on people’s lives.
No two days are the same. One morning you might be helping someone prepare for an interview over a coffee. That afternoon you could be meeting an employer to create a new job opportunity.
What you'll be doing:
Managing a small caseload of participants.
Supporting with CVs, job applications and interviews.
Creating SMART action plans and helping people move into work quickly.
Working alongside NHS teams, local authorities and community partners.
Building relationships with employers and identifying suitable vacancies.
Providing ongoing in-work support to help people sustain employment.
This is a community-based role in Croydon, so you'll spend most of your time out meeting participants and employers rather than sitting behind a desk.
We’re particularly interested in hearing from people with one of the following backgrounds:
A recent graduate (Psychology or a related degree is beneficial but not essential) who has gained some experience in sales, recruitment or supporting vulnerable people through work or volunteering.
An Employment Advisor, Employment Coach, Work Coach or Employment Specialist looking for a new opportunity.
A Recruiter or Recruitment Consultant who enjoys building relationships, working towards targets and is looking to move into a more rewarding, purpose-driven career.
This is a busy, fast-paced role with a significant amount of administration, so you’ll need to be organised, comfortable using IT systems and able to manage a varied workload while maintaining excellent attention to detail.
