Working on-site at HMP Durham, one of our secure units, our Employment Coaches recognise and record the progress and achievement of prisoners working within the prison.

They will manage a caseload of prisoners, coaching and assessing them in their place of work, supported by workplace supervisors.

**How can you stand out from the crowd?**

You will need to demonstrate high ethical standards, take personal accountability for everything you do, and always want to be the best. Ideally you will have some experience in an Information and Guidance, or Employability focused role. You should be able to engage with individuals with complex needs in an empathetic and impactful manner and believe every individual’s ability to make positive changes in their life. You will ned to confident working in a secure environment and be committed to making a difference to the lives of the prisoners you engage with.

Here are PeoplePlus, we are committed to transforming the lives of people with convictions through our work in prisons.

Our services have been designed to tackle the underlying causes of offending behaviour so people can make positive changes to their lives.

With more than 500 people working to support people with convictions in custody and in the community, we bring passion, experience and innovation to public sector rehabilitation services.

We also work with specialist partner organisations to help people move away from their past and look forward to a brighter future.

All of our services are designed in partnership with the people who we’re trying to help and away from our direct work with people serving their sentences, we’re working hard to change attitudes towards people who can often be tarnished unfairly following criminal convictions. Our Social Recruitment Framework brings together organisations to tackle any pre-conceived ideas about hiring people who have previously been involved in crime.

We also work with employers on the Ban the Box initiative to support fair and equal recruitment processes and have engaged industry to influence our employer-led curriculum delivered to our learners.

We are extremely proud to be a Silver accredited Investors in People organisation. This means that at PeoplePlus, the right principles are in place but more than that, it means our people and leaders are making active efforts to make sure that there’s real consistency and everyone in the organisation can feel the effects.
