• The ability to accurately record and report on work activity using IT software and systems
• Creativity, energy and commitment when working with a broad range of people
• The confidence and resilience to support people who may be vulnerable or experiencing challenging circumstances

• Salary of £27,580 per annum
• 35 hours per week
• Generous annual leave entitlement
• 5% employer pension contribution

This is a regulated role working with adults aged 18 and over.
