Colne, Lancashire, United Kingdom Together Housing Full time
About the Role

We are seeking an experienced Employment Advisor to join our team at Newground Together in the Employment and Skill Lancashire department. As an Employment Advisor, you will play a vital role in supporting individuals who are out of work, inactive in the job market, or facing barriers to employment.

Key Responsibilities
  • Deliver new and existing projects that align with our organisational objectives in employment.
  • Work towards and achieve set targets, including numbers on non-regulated activity and job outcomes.
  • Determine and implement effective approaches to help clients develop confidence, overcome barriers, and achieve successful transitions.
  • Engage with local businesses and employers to understand their needs and promote our client base and services.
  • Recruit clients into employability projects, retain their engagement, and encourage participation in workshops, job clubs, and one-to-one sessions to raise aspirations and challenge emotional barriers.
  • Identify and harness local, regional, and national initiatives that deliver new opportunities for employment and training.
  • Develop working relationships with other professionals in the employment, welfare, and training sectors.
Requirements
  • Full UK driving license.
  • Relevant experience or qualifications, such as IAG Level 2 or Coaching/Mentoring qualifications.
  • Experience working with clients aged 16+ years, supporting them to gain employment or training, or experience working with clients to help them progress in their lives.
  • Evidence of effectively working with clients who face multiple barriers, preventing them from engaging and participating in short and long-term interventions.
  • Proven record of developing contacts and engaging with local businesses to source employment opportunities.
  • Experience in problem-solving and working on cases until completion, maintaining and managing a varied caseload.
  • Ability to use initiative and meet performance targets.
  • Experience in negotiating and advocating successfully one-to-one, by telephone, and in writing, as well as face-to-face.
Benefits

We offer a competitive salary, annual salary increment increases, 27 days annual leave (rising to 32 over 5 years' service) + bank holidays, a flexible working environment, and a range of family-friendly policies. This role is located at our Colne site, and you will be working 37 hours per week, Monday – Friday, with flexible working arrangements in line with our Smart working culture. You will also have access to a wide range of professional and personal development training opportunities, an attractive pension scheme, and a range of financial, health, and lifestyle benefits.

Please ensure you fully answer the questions on the application form. Due to the nature of the role involving work with vulnerable members of society, this post is subject to a Fully Enhanced Criminal Disclosure, which will be carried out when a conditional offer is made.
