As a Pact Visits Centre Assistant, you will provide support to families visiting loved ones.

About You:

You'll be used to dealing with people from all sorts of backgrounds and working in partnership with different agencies and organisations. In short, you're a real 'people person' who will roll their sleeves up, work hard and add value to the visits centre team in any way that's needed.

What Pact Offer:

Pact offers a wide range of employee benefits including free confidential advice and counselling service, cycle to work scheme, life assurance, eye care vouchers, generous annual leave plus more.
