IPES Key Worker (London)
**Hybrid**: home based with travel across London
Purpose
Intensive Personalised Employment Support (IPES) is a voluntary provision, supporting people with disabilities and complex barriers to find work, sustain employment and make improvements to their health and wellbeing.
Shaw Trust is delivering IPES alongside specialist partners Health 2 Employment and Genius Within. Specialist Key Workers from each organisation will form Multi Disciplinary Teams, sharing their expert knowledge/experience to provide holistic support to participants.
What do we need?
The Key Worker is integral to the success of the programme, ensuring participants receive regular, intensive, and high quality support. The role requires an engaging, empathetic and motivating individual, able to support people with complex needs to move into sustainable employment.
Key Workers make an impact by looking for new and innovative ways to motivate people who are disadvantaged in the job market. They are able to quickly build rapport with participants and proactively source job opportunities with appropriate employers. They will maintain supportive relationships with both participant and employer once employment begins.
Providing bespoke support to individuals, running regular group sessions, and delivering outreach support where appropriate, Key Workers are the people who can ensure individuals access the right support at the right time and progress towards their employment goals. They are able to adapt the support they provide, according to the changing needs of the participant.
Our Key Workers understand their communities and the wide range of services available within them. Brokering routes into existing services and liaising regularly with health professionals, partner organisations and employers in the local community, Key Workers are focused on ensuring every participants’ journey into sustainable employment is as smooth and well-coordinated as possible.

Do you motivate people, work well in a team and stay focused under pressure?
Do you have the ability and passion to turn around the lives of people through engagement and inclusion?
