We are looking for a quality and performance driven Employment Advisor who will deliver an excellent customer service for participants, playing a pivotal role in equipping them with the skills, tools and practices they need in order to re-enter employment.

Based from our Barry office, Employment Advisors manage a caseload of Restart Participants, working with them to support progression into sustained employment. You will be responsible for:

- Identifying participants goals, aspirations, and barriers to employment - facilitating appropriate short and long-term solutions and interventions as required
- Monitoring ongoing progression of participants into sustainable employment whilst also developing their job search skills, strategy, empowerment and confidence
- Identifying appropriate internal and external contacts to build, develop and maintain relationships as a source of referrals for participants
- Establishing and managing relationships with Employers, following up with both participants and the Employer to gain interviews and ensure a smooth transition into employment and beyond
- Accurate and timely recording and review (for completion and completeness) of all participant details and requirements for every intervention

**For this role you will need**:

- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- The ability to build rapport with a wide range of participants, external networks and colleagues.
- To be confident in your ability to assess, mentor, motivate and coach individuals to be the best they can be.
- To be great at problem-solving and able to identify issues and implement appropriate solutions.
- Strong administration skills and good computer/technology skills, basic numeracy and good record keeping ability.
- Ideally, you will have Level 2 English and IAG Level 4 however, these are not essential.

Previous experience of working with the unemployed/recently employed having supported people with a range of barriers into work e.g., those with health conditions, skills needs, BAME communities, lone parents, those aged 50+ would be beneficial but is not essential.

Here at PeoplePlus, we deliver the Restart Scheme on behalf of the DWP in Kent, the North East, and Wales.

The Scheme gives enhanced support for eligible claimants to find jobs, along with personalised support including health and wellbeing advice and a tailored action plan.

Our support ensures that individuals are ready for the right job at the right time. In the first year of the scheme PeoplePlus supported nearly 15,000 people in their search for fresh employment, with nearly 4,000 starting work. We also provide up to 12 months of support for the individual once they have started work.

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.
