What will you be doing?

This is a genuinely rewarding opportunity where no two days are likely to look the same. You'll be out in the local community, meeting residents in different settings, attending talks and community events, carrying out one-to-one appointments and occasionally visiting people in their homes.

You’ll support residents across areas such as benefits, budgeting, housing and employment, helping them understand the options available to them and take positive steps forward.
