About the Role

This is a dynamic opportunity to join our team as an Employment Support Worker, providing support to young adults with disabilities to achieve their employment goals.

Oxfordshire Employment, an award-winning Countywide Employment Service, is seeking a skilled professional to work on our Supported Internship Programme, delivering employment support to young adults in partnership with local colleges and service providers.

As an Employment Support Worker, you will work closely with colleagues, stakeholders, and employers to ensure that young people are fully supported to develop within an employment setting and achieve a paid employment outcome at the end of the internship, where appropriate.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide reasonable adjustment advice to employers where required, with guidance from the Employment Advisor.
  • Work to the person's strengths when supporting and developing their skills.
  • Complete reviews and administration requirements.
  • Travel around the county will be required, and a car driver would be an advantage.

To be successful in this role, you will be able to demonstrate:

  • Experience or knowledge of supporting people with disabilities within a work setting.
  • Excellent verbal communication skills, along with the ability to communicate effectively with colleagues, college teams, employers, and the people we are supporting on programmes.
  • Excellent organisational skills to enable you to work effectively while supporting people in several locations throughout the County.
What We Offer
  • A culture of flexible working.
  • Technology to support agile working where the role permits.
  • Up to 31 days' holiday per annum, plus bank holidays.
  • Option to 'buy' additional holiday.
  • Employee Assistance Programme, including access to health and wellbeing support.
  • Membership of the Local Government contributory pension scheme, with an employer's contribution of up to 19.9%.
  • Enhanced family-friendly policies.
  • Local and national discounts for shopping and travel.
  • Great learning and development opportunities to support your ongoing development.
