Would you like to work for a national charity supporting people with mental health support needs or chronic health conditions back into employment? The charity has won awards for being a great place to work (investors in people) and really support their staff. Want to be part of an exciting new project?

You will be covering the Leatherhead patch such as Redhill, Reigate, Dorking and Epsom (so driving is essential).

Your head office is going to be in Woking so you are expected to travel here at least once a week to meet with your team and colleagues (all mileage can be claimed from the head office and 70% of your role will be working in the community)

There are also satellite hubs in Leatherhead and Chertsey which you can access.

The clients you are working with will have a mental health support need or a chronic health condition. They might currently be working (so need guidance and support to maintain their current employment or explore new career options). Or they will not be working at present but are now ready to return to work and need your support.  You will hold regular one to ones with your customers where you will provide support around job searching, CV writing and interview preparation.

To apply, you must have experience of supporting people with mental health support needs or those with chronic illnesses in some capacity.  You might be a recent graduate with a relevant degree (such as psychology) looking to get your first step on the career ladder.  You might have previously worked as a support worker, hostel worker, recruitment consultant, employment advisor, job coach, work coach or residential support worker.

*Salary progression: The salary starts at £28,182 per annum and there is a possibility of a pay progression to £29,547 per annum. The pay progression is awarded after a full year of being in the service and at managers discretion based on performance, etc.
