Posted today, 14 Mar
Job ref: 02e3ef29312f4750b39fe7f26d22f655
Full Job Description
You will support the team to generate referrals to Programme and engage with the local community to support eligible residents with employment support and job retention services. Connect to Work is a 'work first' intervention designed to support people into sustained employment.
Who is the person?
You will possess strong employer engagement skills, to support essential job search activities and develop positive relationships with employers to maximize employment opportunities. You will be adept at negotiating job opportunities that align with each individual's strengths, needs, abilities, and preferences. Additionally, you will be capable of managing and supporting a caseload of clients, conducting vocational assessments, and creating action plans through regular meetings to monitor and review progress both pre- and post-employment.
You will also provide job retention support for participants at risk of losing their jobs and maintain an equality and diversity approach at all times. Strong IT skills are essential, including proficiency in customer databases, Microsoft Excel, Word, and online communication platforms like Teams. You will be able to work independently and within a team, demonstrating flexibility to cope with varying demands and a drive to succeed by setting high personal standards to meet targets.
Special Conditions
Driving Licence and use of a car for business is desirable, because travel will be involved across the city - this is because you will be regularly visiting employers, work placements hosts and customers to carry out employment engagement, placement host reviews and customer in work reviews as well as on occasion to accompany clients to interviews.
Due to the diversity of our customer base, the need for regular one to one meetings and the flexibility required in delivering our contracts, a basic DBS Check will be required.
Portsmouth City Council is a unique organisation, committed to making a difference, and is guided by core values that set who we are as people, what we stand for, and how we act.
