**Job summary**:

- Please refer to Job Description**Job description**:
Reducing Reoffending is a government priority. We are introducing the Resettlement Passport to ensure that prison leavers have everything they need on release, which will help improve their access to things like employment, housing and essential services. The Resettlement Worker role will play a crucial part in delivering this existing new initiative.

As a Resettlement Passport ‘Resettlement Worker’, you will:

- Make a genuine difference to the lives of people leaving prison;
- Provide the administrative support to create, populate, coordinate and issue each prisoner’s resettlement passport;
- Ensure the accuracy of data recorded in each resettlement passport and that data security regulations are complied with;
- Work with a range of colleagues and partner agencies across prisons and probation to ensure that they provide information and documentation to be uploaded to each passport in an efficient and timely manner;
- Help to imbed and implement this exciting new project, communicating with line management and the central Resettlement Passport Team to continue to inform long-term development.

The role may involve occasional direct work with prisoners but is primarily administrative in nature. You will create each prisoner’s resettlement passport, then work with a variety of stakeholders to identify, request and upload the relevant documentation that each person needs to help them on their release from prison. You will ensure the passport is shared with the prison leaver and necessary staff on release.

**Essential skills and experience**:
You will need to have great people and organisational skills and this post would be ideal for a high-calibre administrator. You will need to:

- Possess excellent organisational skills and attention to detail;
- Be a clear and confident communicator;
- Be comfortable working collaboratively, with partners and colleagues across the criminal justice system;
- Be able to work independently and at speed, effectively managing your workload;
- Have strong IT skills;
- Be genuinely interested in the resettlement needs of prisoners and a desire to improve their chances of success.
