Are you passionate about helping people overcome barriers, build confidence and achieve positive change?

We're looking for a Progression Advisor to join our specialist team. This is an exciting opportunity to work within an innovative employment and wellbeing model, supporting people whose health conditions, disabilities, wellbeing challenges or life circumstances have impacted their confidence, participation and progression.

Working as part of a multidisciplinary team, you'll support participants to build confidence, capability, participation and independence through trusted relationships, personalised support and behaviourally informed coaching.

Unlike traditional employability roles, this position focuses on supporting participants to make meaningful and sustainable progress at a pace that reflects their individual circumstances. You'll help people develop healthy routines, improve wellbeing, build resilience and increase their confidence to participate in their communities and explore future opportunities, including employment where appropriate.

You'll be the participant's primary point of contact throughout their journey, building strong relationships over time and coordinating access to specialist Occupational Therapists, Wellbeing Specialists and external support services when required.

Progression Advisors work with relatively small caseloads, enabling them to provide personalised support and maintain regular face-to-face contact across a large geographical area. This allows you to focus on quality relationships and meaningful progress rather than simply managing high volumes.

This is a rewarding opportunity that combines wellbeing support, behaviour change, community engagement and employability coaching, allowing you to make a genuine difference to people's lives.

In return for your dedication, knowledge and commitment,we're offering a competitive salary of £31,000 per annum (dependent upon experience) together with these great benefits:

• 25 days annual leave + Bank Holidays + Birthday Day off (with the opportunity to buy an additional 5 days)
• Pension - 5% Employee / 5% Employer
• Healthcare Cash Plan, including 3x salary life assurance
• Annual salary review
• Refer a Friend Scheme
• Free access to Benefit Hub, including retail discounts, Cycle to Work Scheme and additional voluntary benefits
• Professional supervision, training and ongoing development opportunities
