Working with offenders to explore their experience and skills, you will understand their aspirations and long-term goals and support them with their education and employment, both in-custody and through the gate.

From supporting a learner’s induction into the prison and sharing information on the education and training available, through to developing Personal Learning Plans, delivering group Employability sessions and building relationships with local employers and key suppliers - we help our learners to see that their future is full of possibilities.

This is a fixed term until March 2025.

**What are we looking for?**
- Level 3 IAG qualification
- Experience of providing quality careers Information, Advice and Guidance to clients
- Experience of developing and delivering careers/employability workshops
- A passion to inspire, motivate and lead by experience to support achievement of qualifications and career aspirations

- A background in working with disadvantaged people in a secure environment is desirable

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.
