Job description

Would you like to join a charity recognized as a great place to work (Investors in People / Best Companies Awards)? Join them at the start of an exciting journey with their new cutting-edge criminal justice support programme.

In this role, you will manage a caseload of clients across probation and community settings to support their rehabilitation.

The key focus of the service is resettlement and securing employment, which includes helping clients develop skills, secure accommodation, and gain necessary support. The service provides 1:1 support and guidance, setting goals and milestones to aid their progress.

This role covers Basildon Probation Trust and Community.

To apply, you must have experience working with individuals within the criminal justice system, either in a prison or custodial setting. Alternatively, experience supporting vulnerable clients in areas such as mental health, substance abuse, or homelessness is valuable. Criminology graduates with relevant volunteer experience are also encouraged to apply (such as working with clients facing similar challenges).

Please apply via this advert; we aim to respond to everyone. If you haven't heard back within 72 hours, please complete the 'Send Us A Message' form on the Contact Us page on the Red 5 People website, and we guarantee a response from a real person. For more details about the role, please call the office and ask for Lawrence (number available on the Red 5 People website).

You might have previously worked as a prison officer, probation officer, resettlement worker, supported housing officer, drug and alcohol worker, careers or employment advisor, or hostel worker. Alternatively, you might be a criminology graduate seeking your first step on the career ladder with relevant voluntary or paid experience.

Benefits include 25 days of leave (increasing over time), 2 days paid volunteering, an enhanced pension scheme, and life assurance.
