Employability Coach

Covering Burnley & Preston

Job Centre Plus Support Contract

Are you experienced in delivering job focused/skills training to disadvantaged groups? Do you have a track record of achieving/exceeding targets and knowledge of government funded programmes? Do you have an IAG qualification? If so, then you could be perfect for this role.

As part of our Employability team you’ll support our clients by delivering a combination of skills and job focused training programs, workshops and job search guidance to groups. But that’s only half of it. You’re outgoing, approachable nature and ability to listen will enable you to provide clients, with impartial information, advice and guidance to help then make informed decisions about how they can achieve their goals. A typical day could include assessing client’s skills levels and job readiness, assisting in the preparation and updating of clients CVs and self-marketing material, maintaining client records and matching clients to suitable employment and progression opportunities, as well as providing 1:1 support through face to face meetings and telephone contact.

You’ll need to be able to motivate and work positively with a variety of clients, often facing challenging circumstances, and day in day out - even when under pressure.

JHP Group is passionate about improving skills, raising aspirations and developing opportunities for our staff and clients. Every day the teams at our 50 Centres across the UK offer a wide range of work-based and job-seeker training for adults and young people. So if you're passionate, professional and proactive, you could go a long way with us.

You'll also enjoy great benefits here – childcare vouchers, an employee assistance programme for you and your family and 25 days' holiday.

JHP Group welcomes applications from all sectors of the community.
