About The Role
Make a real difference where it matters most.
We’re looking for passionate, people-focused individuals to join our Supporting People on Probation Team in Surrey as a Supporting People on Probation Navigator.
This is a full-time role (35 hours per week), based across Surrey, working in Staines, Guildford, and Redhill, with occasional work alongside prison resettlement teams at HMP Highdown and HMP Coldingley. A full UK driving licence is desirable as travel between sites is essential.
This isn’t about ticking boxes on a CV. You might come from probation, prisons, police, courts, social care, education, health, counselling, coaching, foster caring, or simply bring transferable life experience and a strong belief that people can change.
What matters most is your ability to build trust, engage others, and believe that “another life is possible.”

* Deliver 1:1 support sessions and group interventions
* Support emotional wellbeing, relationships, and social reintegration
* Work closely with Probation Practitioners on structured action plans linked to sentence requirements
* Support service users through real-world challenges, from GP appointments to community activities
* Help prepare individuals for release from prison and resettlement into the community
* Get involved in creative and practical interventions (music groups, allotments, sport, and more)
What we’re looking for
* Strong relationship-building and communication skills
* Passion for supporting behaviour change and rehabilitation
* Resilience, empathy, and a non-judgemental approach
* Confidence working within structured, accountable frameworks
* Ability to work collaboratively with professionals and service users
You’ll be part of a leading national charity delivering Commissioned Rehabilitative Services for HMPPS. Our Surrey team sits within a wider, vibrant network supporting people across the UK.
If you want a role with purpose, challenge, and real impact, this is your chance to help people turn their lives around and build a future beyond their past.
