1 month ago
About this role:
We are seeking an experienced Career Guidance Professional to join our team at Acorn Training. As an IAG Coordinator, you will play a vital role in the rehabilitation and reintegration of individuals within His Majesty's Prisons.
This is a challenging yet rewarding position that requires close collaboration with participants, delivering a high-quality Careers Information, Advice, and Guidance service. Your primary focus will be on fostering the development of aspirations, understanding career pathways, and enhancing employability skills to facilitate access to sustainable employment, training, and education upon release.
Key Responsibilities:
- Proactively manage the rehabilitation of participants in custody and through the gate to reduce reoffending and risk of harm on release, with a focus on achieving sustainable employment.
- Liaise with community-based partners to co-design sustainable rehabilitation networks, demonstrating a personalised approach with a focus on individual enablers and strengths.
- Produce Digital Personal Learning Plans (DPLPs) for all participants arriving at the Establishment.
- Complete progress reviews of the DPLPs in line with contractual KPIs, appropriately aligned to sentence remaining.
- Support participants at the 12-week pre-release stage with one-to-one job search and completion of application forms.
- Support participants at the 12-week pre-release stage to apply for through-the-gate apprenticeship opportunities and Further Education courses.
- Work in collaboration with the DWP Prison Work Coach and the Education provider to deliver a weekly Job Club covering CV preparation, job search, interview techniques, and disclosure of offenses using the Virtual Campus.
- Provide sector-specific Employer Engagement events targeted at individuals who are job ready.
- Deliver sessions covering either mock interview techniques or motivational work to improve job readiness.
- Work effectively with all resettlement partners and other departments within the establishment.
- Input into employability sessions on pre-release courses.
- Ensure all pertinent information gathered by participants over their sentence is electronically moved to their Virtual Campus account, transitioning to community services for continued support on release.
- For those unable to gain employment immediately on release, transfer them to service providers in the community (e.g., National Careers Service) to ensure continuity in supporting their progression into learning and employment.
Key Performance Indicators:
- Advice and guidance services are provided promptly upon request, in line with contractual requirements and delays are minimised.
- Percentage of participants who attend scheduled group IAG workshops and 1-2-1 sessions.
- Number of successful partnerships established with external organisations to enhance post-release opportunities.
- Percentage of participants with open Digital Personal Learning Plans (DPLPs)
- Percentage of participants having a timely review of their Digital Personal Learning Plan prior to release.
- Percentage of participants who successfully reintegrate into society after receiving IAG services.
- High levels of participant satisfaction with the service and experience received.
