**PLEASE NOTE AN APPLICATION FORM AND COVER LETTER WILL BE REQUIRED, AND THE CANDIDATE MUST HAVE A RIGHT TO WORK IN THE UK**

**We are delighted to be recruiting for a specialist adult autism advisor role, focussed on providing one2one and group based support for autistic adults. You don’t need to have any knowledge of or experience of autism, but you do need to be organised, efficient, enjoy completing lots of different types of work every day and feel confident working with a high volume of different people every week. We think this role would suit someone who has worked as a social worker, a teacher or a social prescriber. It is an incredibly rewarding and interesting role, working in a kind and happy team.**

Although the role states home working as an option, this would be in the form of blended working. There is an expectation that the postholder will spend around 1/3 of their hours in the offices in Eastcote, 1/3 of their hours in location in the borough being supported, and 1/3 of their hours from home. Note the salary listed is a full time equivalent salary, so actual salary will vary depending on hours agreed.

Hours: Full time 35hours per week

Additional project work may be available on an ad-hoc basis. Flexible hours, evening and weekend work may be required, and the work pattern may vary each week.
