Sessional Justice Support Worker

Sacro’s mission is to deliver life changing services that empower people, give hope and protection, and help to build safe communities.

We are currently recruiting Sessional Justice Support Workers. Providing support to assist people to comply with statutory and non-statutory court disposals, who may require supports to access local services aimed at helping them to address needs, that may have contributed to them becoming involved in offending behaviour. Our community-based assertive outreach includes helping to engage with recovery-based activities and build stability.

You must be able to demonstrate excellent verbal and written communication skills and be able to work in a small team. You will have experience of partnership and inter-agency work and ideally have worked in social care, recovery, stabilisation, mentoring, ideally outreach based.

Duties will include supporting individuals to access benefits, engage with other agencies, attend appointments, develop social support networks, general living skills and addressing reasons for substance misuse and offending behaviour.

You will be required to work alongside our team who carry a caseload and assist with joint working as well as lone working.

A commitment to Sacro’s value base is crucial, as this type of work can be challenging.

The ability to use initiative and organise workload within a pressurised environment is essential.

Successful applicants will be flexible and imaginative in their approach and sensitive and confident in their ability to help service users.

Hours of work are as and when required.

Membership of the Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) scheme will be a requirement for the above posts for which Sacro will cover the cost.

We welcome applications from individuals who share Sacro’s aims and values and want to engage with those we support to help them move on to a more secure, settled and fulfilling life and value diversity from all sections of the community.
