Leeds, United Kingdom St Giles Trust Full time

**Job Summary**:
**About us St Giles and the Children & Families Service**

An ambitious, well-established charity that helps people facing adversity to find jobs, homes and the right support they need. Central to our ethos is our belief that people with first-hand experience of successfully overcoming issues such as an offending background, homelessness, and addictions, hold the key to positive change in others.

Without the right support, families can become trapped in a cycle of homelessness, crime, unemployment and poverty that is passed on from generation to generation. St Giles solution to this stark reality is our Children & Families Service. The C&F team offer an intensive and holistic approach and our caseworkers help to unlock chaotic families’ potential, and empowering them to raise themselves out of poverty.

**About this key role**

As a Caseworker, you will supervise and work in conjunction with volunteer Peer Advisors to provide support to prisoners and their families annually, who are based in Leeds Bradford or Wakefield.

A ‘whole family’ approach involves working with the family to assess risk, ensuring all family members feel safe and also mentoring young people. You will be offering holistic support to enable the family to achieve their potential and raise aspirations.

**What we are looking for**:

- Personal experience of the Criminal Justice System
- A requirement to successfully get through vetting
- Experience of working with socially excluded children, young people and adults
- Experience of providing advice and guidance and/or mentoring to young people
- Mentoring Level 3 qualification (or be willing to work towards this).
- Ability to demonstrate knowledge and awareness of the issues faced by our client group, in particular barriers faced by people with lived in experience.

In return, you can expect a competitive salary, generous leave allowance, staff pension, access to clinical supervision flexible working, a mentoring programme, an advice and counselling service, access to clinical supervision, season ticket loan and much more.

**As an organisation that works with children and adults at risk we are committed to safeguarding, protecting and promoting the safety of our clients and successful applicants will be DBS Checked.**

**Closing date: Monday 31st July 2023. Interviews: Wednesday, 9th August 2023**

St Giles will guarantee to interview all disabled applicants who meet the minimum criteria set out in the Job Description for the vacancy.
