Nuneaton, United Kingdom Warwickshire County Council Full time

About the Team

Warwickshire County Council and its Employability and Skills team recently launched a new service which supports Warwickshire’s young people and adults with learning disabilities and/or autism to gain employment.

Building on the council’s significant investment in a range of support for young people and adults with supportive needs, the Warwickshire Supported Employment Service is designed to deliver highly engaging activity, supporting individuals to engage in meaningful employment support which will be shaped to meet their needs and overcome barriers into employment. Individuals will be invited to attend regular community-based group sessions, linking directly to inclusive and uniquely carved employment opportunities with Warwickshire employers.

The ultimate goal of the service is to help those wanting to work to access employment opportunities, strive for independence and identify a career path which is sustainable and supports the individual to thrive.

It is our ambition to continue to build a team who will represent the values of our organisation, the vision for the new service and of course have the skills to inspire those we support, employers and the various partners we work with.

Since the launch in February 2023, the service has experienced high levels of demand for inclusive employment support the Warwickshire Supported Employment Service offers. We must now build the team to reflect this and enable the service to continue to offer the high-quality support offer available to Warwickshire residents with learning disabilities and/or Autism.
